Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C-
ValueC NeedA- TradesF FutureB-
The Cowboys got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C-.

The Cowboys put a flag in the ground for Carson Steele, 82 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. They banked enough surplus on Jacobs to cover a lot of smaller sins.

That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul in No. 56 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick76 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Xavier Worthy at pick No. 76. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
A big swing on Braelon Allen at the 87th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick121 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer in the 121st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
They reached a country mile for Jaylan Ford at the Round 5 slot, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick216 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at the 216th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick233 Rnd7 Kedon Slovis
A wild overpay on Kedon Slovis in Round 7, Pick 13, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It fills a real need, too.
Pick244 Rnd7 Carson Steele
Carson Steele in pick No. 244 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
