Draft Grade — Cowboys

FutureB-
The Cowboys finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a D-. The Brady Cook pick is the one that will follow the Cowboys into the fall. They took him 72 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.
The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. They have staked the next five years on Jaxson Dart, which is the only story that really matters here. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
The Edwards pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Jaxson Dart
In the Round 1 slot they get their quarterback of the future, a steep price for the projection.
Pick44
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
A slide stopped in No. 44, with Emeka Egbuka worth more than the price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick48
Rnd2
Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea at pick No. 48 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick74
Rnd3
Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas at slot 74 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick76
Rnd3
Tre Harris
Tre Harris in the 76th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick98
Rnd3
Savion Williams
A reasonable price with a little left over, Savion Williams in Round 3, Pick 34. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick116
Rnd4
Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in pick 116 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick149
Rnd5
Ajani Cornelius
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ajani Cornelius well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick171
Rnd5
Raheim Sanders
No drama and no debate, Raheim Sanders went about where he belonged in Round 5, Pick 33. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick174
Rnd5
CJ West
A reach on CJ West in the 174th overall pick; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick204
Rnd6
JJ Pegues
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at the 204th pick is the definition of value, full stop. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick211
Rnd6
Brady Cook
They talked themselves into Brady Cook at pick No. 211, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick239
Rnd7
Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards in No. 239 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick247
Rnd7
Hayden Conner
A big swing on Hayden Conner at slot 247, well ahead of any board in the building. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
