Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueA NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
Ward is the Cowboys' new face under center. Grade: B+.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how T.J. Sanders got past him. The Cowboys do not have to explain a thing at the Round 7 slot.

Cam Ward is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In No. 14 they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Travis Hunter
Travis Hunter at the 44th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Walter Nolen
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick116 Rnd4 Ashton Jeanty
The board fumbled Ashton Jeanty all the way to the 116th overall pick, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick148 Rnd5 Wyatt Milum
Circle this one: Wyatt Milum at the 148th pick is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jihaad Campbell
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jihaad Campbell in No. 168, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick170 Rnd5 Tre Harris
Steal is underselling it; Tre Harris at Round 5, Pick 33 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick171 Rnd5 Jahdae Barron
They barely believed it either: Jahdae Barron still on the board at pick No. 171. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick187 Rnd6 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland at pick 187 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick188 Rnd6 Josaiah Stewart
Josaiah Stewart in slot 188 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick209 Rnd6 Xavier Restrepo
Somehow Xavier Restrepo was still sitting there in slot 209, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick247 Rnd7 T.J. Sanders
Taking T.J. Sanders in the Round 7 slot is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
