Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall

FutureB-
The Cowboys won the night they stopped McMillan from sliding. Grade: B-. You could see the war room lean forward. Jalen McMillan at No. 174 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.
They will need Slovis to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the tight end spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In No. 24 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick59
Rnd2
Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in pick No. 59 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick87
Rnd3
Payton Wilson
A linebacker of that caliber at slot 87 is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick111
Rnd4
Beaux Limmer
They paid up for Beaux Limmer at the 111th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick123
Rnd4
Cam Hart
The board fumbled Cam Hart all the way to the Round 4 slot, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick174
Rnd5
Jalen McMillan
Somehow Jalen McMillan was still sitting there in pick 174, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick216
Rnd6
Frank Gore Jr.
A reach on Frank Gore Jr. in the 216th pick; the board had better options right there. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick233
Rnd7
Kedon Slovis
A real head-scratcher, Kedon Slovis in Round 7, Pick 13 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick244
Rnd7
Zion Logue
Zion Logue at the 244th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
