Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Cowboys.

For all the boxes ticked, the Cowboys skipped the loudest one: linebacker is exactly as bare as it was. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

They banked enough surplus on Thomas to cover a lot of smaller sins. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
Nothing to complain about; Mansoor Delane went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick20 Rnd1 T.J. Parker
In slot 20 they get a double-digit-sack hope. More want than need.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jonah Coleman
Jonah Coleman in Round 3, Pick 28 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick112 Rnd4 Brian Parker II
No edge and no loss on Brian Parker II in No. 112; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick152 Rnd5 Jakobe Thomas
Jakobe Thomas is a better player than the 152nd overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick177 Rnd5 Trey Moore
They paid sticker price for Trey Moore in pick 177, and that is fine. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick180 Rnd5 Eric Rivers
Eric Rivers slipping to the Round 5 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
