Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

The Cowboys bet big and early on Roman Hemby, 53 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Jackson.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
Arvell Reese at the 12th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick20 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In pick No. 20 they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick112 Rnd4 Chase Bisontis
A straight-up fair deal on Chase Bisontis at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick150 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
A tidy bit of business in the 150th overall pick, where Domani Jackson graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick177 Rnd5 Eric McAlister
Good price on Eric McAlister in pick 177, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick215 Rnd6 Roman Hemby
Roman Hemby at slot 215 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick221 Rnd7 Kamran James
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kamran James in No. 221, miles early. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick225 Rnd7 J. Michael Sturdivant
A slide stopped in slot 225, with J. Michael Sturdivant worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
