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

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Cowboys started one anyway for Kedon Slovis, 72 picks ahead of schedule.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In No. 30 they get a weapon on the perimeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
No drama and no debate, Payton Wilson went about where he belonged in pick 56. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick64 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
They paid sticker price for Patrick Paul in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick87 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson in the 87th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jonah Elliss
A straight-up fair deal on Jonah Elliss at the 90th pick, value and slot in agreement. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick93 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in Round 3, Pick 30 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick114 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves at the Round 4 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick116 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
No edge and no loss on McKinnley Jackson in No. 116; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick153 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Tanor Bortolini well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
A real head-scratcher, Jaylan Ford in slot 174 is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick216 Rnd6 Zion Tupuola-Fetui
They took Zion Tupuola-Fetui at par in pick 216, which is nothing to complain about. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick233 Rnd7 Kedon Slovis
They left a pile of value on the table to take Kedon Slovis this early at the 233rd overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
