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

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Drew Allar in slot 94, a good 63 spots before the room expected him. The math is unkind, and the D follows.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. The Golday steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

They went 8 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In the 6th overall pick they get a rangy last line of defense at fair value. More want than need.
Pick8 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In the Round 1 slot they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick20 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In No. 20 they get a press-man option on the boundary. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick24 Rnd1 Jordyn Tyson
In slot 24 they get a No. 1 receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Gennings Dunker
Gennings Dunker at Round 2, Pick 7 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick43 Rnd2 Gabe Jacas
A premium they did not need to pay, Gabe Jacas a notch or two before his time. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick87 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers in No. 87 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick90 Rnd3 Caden Curry
Caden Curry at Round 3, Pick 26 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick92 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick94 Rnd3 Drew Allar
They left a pile of value on the table to take Drew Allar this early at pick 94. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick107 Rnd4 Jake Golday
A top-tier edge rusher at a bargain, Jake Golday in slot 107, plain and simple. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick112 Rnd4 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at the 112th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick113 Rnd4 Mason Reiger
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Mason Reiger well ahead of where he belonged. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick152 Rnd5 Ephesians Prysock
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Ephesians Prysock. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick177 Rnd5 VJ Payne
VJ Payne at pick No. 177 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick180 Rnd5 Caleb Douglas
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Caleb Douglas at Round 5, Pick 40. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick218 Rnd7 Jeremiah Wright
Jeremiah Wright at slot 218 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
