Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Cowboys got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D-.

The Cowboys clearly saw something nobody else did in Joe Milton III, taking him 63 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. The process wobbled, and the D- is where it lands.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. The Jackson pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at tight end.

The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In pick 29 they get a long-term starter on the line, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
They did well to land Chris Braswell in the 56th pick, just ahead of his grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick59 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They took T'Vondre Sweat at par in pick No. 59, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick73 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
They paid up for Patrick Paul at the Round 3 slot when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jalen McMillan
Value said wait; Jalen McMillan in slot 87 says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick90 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at Round 3, Pick 27 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick114 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
By-the-book stuff, Braelon Allen at No. 114 squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick116 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
They paid sticker price for Johnny Wilson in pick No. 116, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick123 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Beaux Limmer well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick127 Rnd4 Brennan Jackson
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the Round 4 slot on Brennan Jackson with tight end unsolved.
Pick153 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
A big swing on Joe Milton III at slot 153, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jaylan Ford this early at the 174th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick216 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on JD Bertrand. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
