Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueC- NeedB TradesF FutureA
The Cowboys got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Cowboys reached some 200 spots for Keyon Ware-Hudson, and value like that does not grow back.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. On the needs board they went 7 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and tight end is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In the 15th pick they get an island corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Kamari Ramsey
By-the-book stuff, Kamari Ramsey at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick115 Rnd4 Jadarian Price
Jadarian Price at the 115th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick155 Rnd5 Nic Anderson
Fair-plus on Nic Anderson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick172 Rnd5 Keyon Ware-Hudson
Keyon Ware-Hudson at pick 172 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick178 Rnd5 Gracen Halton
Gracen Halton in No. 178 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick179 Rnd5 Le'Veon Moss
Le'Veon Moss in pick No. 179 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick216 Rnd7 Drayk Bowen
Drayk Bowen at No. 216 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick229 Rnd7 Alex Birchmeier
This one needs a full-page explanation: Alex Birchmeier in the 229th overall pick, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick247 Rnd7 Kamran James
Kamran James in pick 247 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick252 Rnd7 Tunmise Adeleye
Tunmise Adeleye at the Round 7 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick257 Rnd7 Kaidon Salter
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kaidon Salter well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
