Draft Grade — Cowboys

FutureA+
The Cowboys got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D+. Somebody took the Cowboys to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. The math is unkind, and the D+ follows.
Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Sanders reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.
The veteran additions, Bo Nix chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not. They banked enough surplus on Allar to cover a lot of smaller sins.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, tight end very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick28
Rnd1
Jonah Savaiinaea
In No. 28 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick35
Rnd2
Ollie Gordon II
The board had Ollie Gordon II higher than the Round 2 slot, and the running back fell to them anyway. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick58
Rnd2
Danny Stutsman
By-the-book stuff, Danny Stutsman at the 58th pick squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick64
Rnd2
Josh Simmons
Josh Simmons in slot 64 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick67
Rnd3
Drew Allar
A quiet steal in Round 3, Pick 3: Drew Allar for less than the market said. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick90
Rnd3
J. Michael Sturdivant
They took J. Michael Sturdivant at par in the 90th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick91
Rnd3
Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders in pick No. 91 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick92
Rnd3
Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner at pick 92 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick99
Rnd4
Nazir Stackhouse
Nazir Stackhouse in the 99th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick122
Rnd4
Nick Emmanwori
A straight-up fair deal on Nick Emmanwori at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick154
Rnd5
Denver Harris
Nothing to complain about; Denver Harris went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick186
Rnd6
Will Howard
Will Howard at No. 186 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The roster fit checks out.
