Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys cashed the board's mistake on Sarratt: B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Elijah Sarratt slide, and the Cowboys were the ones holding the card at No. 177. Highway robbery. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

They are betting Hemby proves the room right and everyone else wrong. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Keldric Faulk
Fair-plus on Keldric Faulk, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick20 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In No. 20 they get a green-dot type in the middle at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick112 Rnd4 Anthony Hill Jr.
Somehow Anthony Hill Jr. was still sitting there in pick 112, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick150 Rnd5 Jaeden Roberts
Taking Jaeden Roberts in the Round 5 slot is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick177 Rnd5 Elijah Sarratt
Elijah Sarratt in the 177th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick215 Rnd6 Tony Grimes
A real head-scratcher, Tony Grimes in pick No. 215 is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jerry Wilson
Jerry Wilson is a better player than the 221st pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick225 Rnd7 Roman Hemby
Roman Hemby in Round 7, Pick 9 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
