Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Cowboys for Stutsman: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Danny Stutsman at No. 169 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

Igbinosun has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The offensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

The trade work was a quiet net positive. They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with offensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In slot 12 they get a load in the middle. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 Isaiah Bond
The board had Isaiah Bond higher than pick 51, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick61 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
They read the board right and Derrick Harmon was the payoff at the Round 2 slot. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick75 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Alfred Collins. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick83 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
They will replay Kaleb Johnson at the 83rd pick for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick118 Rnd4 Dylan Sampson
They robbed the room for Dylan Sampson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick130 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in Round 4, Pick 29 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Pick169 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman in the 169th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick170 Rnd5 Gunnar Helm
A reach for Gunnar Helm in the Round 5 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick171 Rnd5 Jordan Hancock
Taking Jordan Hancock in No. 171 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick172 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at slot 172 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick186 Rnd6 Lathan Ransom
A safety of that caliber at pick No. 186 is the definition of value, full stop. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick209 Rnd6 Will Howard
This one needs a full-page explanation: Will Howard in Round 6, Pick 34, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
