Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Cowboys bled value on every deal, hence the C-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Cowboys took Brady Cook at No. 204, roughly 66 spots before his name belonged. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C-.

Landing Etienne that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere.

A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In the 12th pick they get a cornerstone up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 Tre Harris
No drama and no debate, Tre Harris went about where he belonged in slot 44. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick74 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in Round 3, Pick 10 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick76 Rnd3 Deone Walker
A quiet steal in pick 76: Deone Walker for less than the market said. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick111 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at the 111th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick149 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
Steal is underselling it; Darius Alexander at the Round 5 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick171 Rnd5 Trevor Etienne
Trevor Etienne at No. 171 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick174 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dont'e Thornton Jr.. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick204 Rnd6 Brady Cook
A big swing on Brady Cook at slot 204, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick211 Rnd6 Ja'Quinden Jackson
They took Ja'Quinden Jackson at par in pick No. 211, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick239 Rnd7 CJ West
They robbed the room for CJ West here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick247 Rnd7 Nick Martin
Nick Martin at the Round 7 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
