Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall

FutureA+
The phones sank the Cowboys this weekend: D+. The Cowboys did not so much draft Zion Logue as overpay for him, 70 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. It grades a D+, and the process earned it.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. On value alone, Nix makes the weekend a net positive.
The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In pick No. 14 they get a cornerstone up front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In slot 27 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick45
Rnd2
Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell at No. 45 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick56
Rnd2
Bo Nix
Bo Nix in the 56th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick71
Rnd3
Trey Benson
Trey Benson in pick 71 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick76
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Khyree Jackson this early at the Round 3 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87
Rnd3
Gabriel Murphy
They took Gabriel Murphy at par in pick 87, which is nothing to complain about. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick103
Rnd4
Beaux Limmer
A big swing on Beaux Limmer at Round 4, Pick 3, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick121
Rnd4
Tommy Eichenberg
A wild overpay on Tommy Eichenberg in the 121st pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick160
Rnd5
Dillon Johnson
Dillon Johnson at slot 160 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick163
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at the Round 5 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick174
Rnd5
Jaylan Ford
A real head-scratcher, Jaylan Ford in pick No. 174 is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick216
Rnd6
Zion Logue
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Zion Logue well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
