Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueC NeedB+ TradesF FutureA+
Mensah is the plan now, and the Cowboys grade out a D.

The Cowboys clearly saw something nobody else did in Elijah Paige, taking him 50 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. Hard to defend, and the D reflects that.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. Darian Mensah is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off.

That Baugh pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Darian Mensah
In pick 6 they get their guy under center for the next decade, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick7 Rnd1 Leonard Moore
In Round 1, Pick 7 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick8 Rnd1 Cam Coleman
In pick No. 8 they get a weapon on the perimeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick38 Rnd2 Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Kenyatta Jackson Jr. this early at the 38th overall pick. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick41 Rnd2 A'Mauri Washington
Value with a capital V on A'Mauri Washington in No. 41, a genuine coup. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jadan Baugh
You do not let a running back like Jadan Baugh reach the 62nd pick and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick72 Rnd3 Ben Roberts
They liked Ben Roberts enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 72. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick82 Rnd3 Peter Clarke
A big swing on Peter Clarke at Round 3, Pick 18, well ahead of any board in the building. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick109 Rnd4 Elijah Paige
Value said wait; Elijah Paige in slot 109 says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick125 Rnd4 Marcus Neal Jr.
Marcus Neal Jr. at the 125th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick193 Rnd6 Eric Singleton Jr.
They took Eric Singleton Jr. at par in pick 193, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
