Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA- FutureA
The Cowboys robbed the room for Hudson. Final grade: B+.

The board owed the Cowboys one, and it paid up: Kobe Hudson, the No. 215 name on the board, sitting there at Round 7, Pick 31 like a gift left on the doorstep. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Reaching for Colby left real value on the table behind him. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the Round 1 slot they get a seam-stretching tight end. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton in the 44th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick76 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Nothing to complain about; Maxwell Hairston went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at pick No. 139 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick149 Rnd5 Logan Brown
Good price on Logan Brown in No. 149, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick171 Rnd5 Connor Colby
Connor Colby in slot 171 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick174 Rnd5 RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey at pick 174 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The roster fit checks out.
Pick204 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
A tidy little value on KeAndre Lambert-Smith in Round 6, Pick 28, a step better than break-even. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jay Higgins at the Round 6 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick239 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
They paid up for Zeek Biggers at pick No. 239 when waiting would have done the job. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick247 Rnd7 Kobe Hudson
Kobe Hudson in the 247th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
