Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Cowboys lost the trade table, and the D tells the story.

The Cowboys clearly saw something nobody else did in Chip Trayanum, taking him 106 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Davis falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
In No. 19 they get a disruptor off the edge. Need was not the driver here.
Pick26 Rnd1 Emery Jones
Emery Jones at the 26th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick51 Rnd2 Tacario Davis
Tacario Davis at slot 51 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick58 Rnd2 Danny Stutsman
They paid sticker price for Danny Stutsman in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick62 Rnd2 Earnest Greene III
Earnest Greene III at Round 2, Pick 30 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick83 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
The board had Andrew Mukuba higher than pick No. 83, and the safety fell to them anyway. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick90 Rnd3 Raheim Sanders
They paid a round early for Raheim Sanders in pick 90, more than the board wanted. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick92 Rnd3 J. Michael Sturdivant
They talked themselves into J. Michael Sturdivant at the 92nd pick, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick93 Rnd3 Cameron Ward
A quiet steal in No. 93: Cameron Ward for less than the market said. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick122 Rnd4 Alfred Collins
This one needs a full-page explanation: Alfred Collins in pick No. 122, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick154 Rnd5 Chip Trayanum
Chip Trayanum at the Round 5 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
