Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall F
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureF
The Cowboys let Fitzgerald fall and pounced. Final grade: F.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Thor Griffith, 81 picks early at pick 198. The warnings were there, and the F is the bill.

The Fitzgerald pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. The bill for those future picks comes due whether the class hits or not.

On the needs board they went 8 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

There is no soft landing here; this class has to massively overperform just to matter.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In the Round 1 slot they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Luther Burden III at No. 27. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick33 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant at the 33rd pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick44 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
A quiet steal in slot 44: Tate Ratledge for less than the market said. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
A clean, defensible pick in the 51st overall pick with a little surplus value in Colston Loveland. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick60 Rnd2 Will Howard
They left a pile of value on the table to take Will Howard this early at pick 60. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick67 Rnd3 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson in No. 67 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick76 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at pick No. 76 is a conviction pick that outran the value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick85 Rnd3 Jake Majors
No drama and no debate, Jake Majors went about where he belonged in the 85th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick94 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
They went early on Cam Skattebo in Round 3, Pick 30, and the value did not follow. It fills a real need, too.
Pick102 Rnd4 Dylan Sampson
They robbed the room for Dylan Sampson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jack Bech
Steal is underselling it; Jack Bech at the Round 4 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick148 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
They will replay Kevin Winston Jr. at slot 148 for years; that is how good the value is. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick163 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Somehow Smael Mondon Jr. was still sitting there in the Round 5 slot, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick170 Rnd5 Rod Moore
Rod Moore at the 170th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick173 Rnd5 James Burnip
They read the board right and James Burnip was the payoff at pick 173. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick174 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom in the 174th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick177 Rnd6 Kalel Mullings
Kalel Mullings in No. 177 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick186 Rnd6 Cody Simon
They barely believed it either: Cody Simon still on the board at pick No. 186. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick189 Rnd6 Kobe King
Circle this one: Kobe King at Round 6, Pick 14 is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick190 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
You do not let a linebacker like Jay Higgins reach Round 6, Pick 15 and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick194 Rnd6 Robert Spears-Jennings
The board fumbled Robert Spears-Jennings all the way to the 194th pick, and they scooped it up. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick195 Rnd6 Elijah Arroyo
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Elijah Arroyo at slot 195 is the proof. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick198 Rnd6 Thor Griffith
They reached a country mile for Thor Griffith at pick 198, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick209 Rnd6 Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald in pick No. 209 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick214 Rnd6 Jaishawn Barham
Jaishawn Barham in No. 214 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jared Wilson
They did well to land Jared Wilson in the 215th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jalen Travis
They reached into another round for Jalen Travis, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick228 Rnd7 Nick Nash
This one needs a full-page explanation: Nick Nash in pick 228, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick243 Rnd7 Makari Paige
Makari Paige in slot 243 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick244 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders in the 244th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick248 Rnd7 Joey Slackman
Value said wait; Joey Slackman in pick No. 248 says they were not listening. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick256 Rnd7 Hudson Card
A wild overpay on Hudson Card in No. 256, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
