Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueA+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys let Legette fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Cowboys were there to profit. Xavier Legette, the No. 35 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 125th pick.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback. On the needs board they went 1 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
Circle this one: Malik Nabers at slot 24 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick56 Rnd2 Rome Odunze
Taking Rome Odunze in pick No. 56 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick87 Rnd3 Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell in the Round 3 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick125 Rnd4 Xavier Legette
They will replay Xavier Legette at pick 125 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
