Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Cowboys.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Cowboys spent slot 239 on Collin Oliver, a name most had 51 spots down the list.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Winston Jr. pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In No. 14 they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland in pick 44 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick76 Rnd3 Dylan Sampson
A quiet steal in slot 76: Dylan Sampson for less than the market said. It fills a real need, too.
Pick80 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in the 80th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick117 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in the Round 4 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick149 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
No drama and no debate, Luke Kandra went about where he belonged in Round 5, Pick 11. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick171 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at pick 171 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick174 Rnd5 Ben Sauls
A tidy bit of business in Round 5, Pick 36, where Ben Sauls graded well above the range. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick204 Rnd6 Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty at slot 204 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick211 Rnd6 Simeon Barrow Jr.
Simeon Barrow Jr. at pick No. 211 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick239 Rnd7 Collin Oliver
Collin Oliver in the 239th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick247 Rnd7 Kitan Crawford
No edge and no loss on Kitan Crawford in No. 247; it is a wash and a sensible one. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
