Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA- FutureB
More right than wrong for the Cowboys, and a B to prove it.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Cowboys took Jalin Conyers a full 192 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. On value alone, Wells Jr. makes the weekend a net positive.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 20th overall pick they get a true top target, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton in pick 44 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick51 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at the 51st pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick76 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker in slot 76 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick117 Rnd4 Nohl Williams
They paid up for Nohl Williams at the Round 4 slot when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick149 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
O'Donnell Fortune in pick No. 149 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick174 Rnd5 Craig Woodson
Craig Woodson at Round 5, Pick 36 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick178 Rnd6 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at pick 178 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick188 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
A straight-up fair deal on Oronde Gadsden II at pick No. 188, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jalin Conyers
Value said wait; Jalin Conyers in slot 189 says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick204 Rnd6 Caleb Rogers
They did well to land Caleb Rogers in the Round 6 slot, just ahead of his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Antwane Wells Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Antwane Wells Jr. at No. 211. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick217 Rnd7 Trey Wedig
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Trey Wedig. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick232 Rnd7 Robert Longerbeam
Robert Longerbeam at the 232nd overall pick is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
