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

The tape said wait; the Cowboys did not. Chip Trayanum went at pick 186, a good 83 picks before the board was ready.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Emery Jones
By-the-book stuff, Emery Jones at pick No. 30 squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick58 Rnd2 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman in slot 58 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick64 Rnd2 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at Round 2, Pick 32 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jalon Walker
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jalon Walker. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick92 Rnd3 Raheim Sanders
The board had cheaper options than Raheim Sanders at the 92nd pick, and it noticed. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick94 Rnd3 J. Michael Sturdivant
J. Michael Sturdivant at the 94th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick122 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
They went early on Davison Igbinosun in slot 122, and the value did not follow. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick154 Rnd5 Alfred Collins
They paid up for Alfred Collins at pick No. 154 when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick186 Rnd6 Chip Trayanum
Chip Trayanum at pick 186 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
