Draft Grade — Cowboys

FutureB
A franchise passer in Ward headlines a D weekend for the Cowboys. Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Trey Amos got past him. The Cowboys do not have to explain a thing at No. 247. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D is the result.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. The whole projection now runs through Cam Ward; hit there and everything else looks smarter.
Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Cam Ward
In the 12th pick they get the arm they will build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44
Rnd2
Armand Membou
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Armand Membou in slot 44, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick57
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
They robbed the room for Tyler Warren here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick74
Rnd3
Mike Green
You do not let an edge rusher like Mike Green reach the 74th pick and blink. They did not. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick76
Rnd3
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in pick 76 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick111
Rnd4
Ashton Jeanty
Ashton Jeanty at pick No. 111 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick114
Rnd4
Jahdae Barron
Circle this one: Jahdae Barron at slot 114 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick140
Rnd5
Elic Ayomanor
Somehow Elic Ayomanor was still sitting there in the 140th overall pick, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick149
Rnd5
Jack Bech
Jack Bech at Round 5, Pick 11 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick157
Rnd5
Alfred Collins
They barely believed it either: Alfred Collins still on the board at the Round 5 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick163
Rnd5
Shemar Turner
They will replay Shemar Turner at the 163rd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick171
Rnd5
Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier in slot 171 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick174
Rnd5
Walter Nolen
The board fumbled Walter Nolen all the way to the Round 5 slot, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick204
Rnd6
Savion Williams
Savion Williams in the 204th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick211
Rnd6
Aireontae Ersery
Steal is underselling it; Aireontae Ersery at pick 211 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick235
Rnd7
Demetrius Knight Jr.
Taking Demetrius Knight Jr. in No. 235 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick239
Rnd7
Kalel Mullings
Kalel Mullings at Round 7, Pick 23 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick247
Rnd7
Trey Amos
A cornerback of that caliber at pick No. 247 is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
