FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Cowboys: B. The Cowboys spent real capital to be 60 picks early on Trevin Wallace, and the board is going to hold them to it. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.
The Flournoy pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Jackson Powers-Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a building block for the line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick58
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in No. 58 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It fills a real need, too.
Pick87
Rnd3
Blake Corum
Nothing to complain about; Blake Corum went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick88
Rnd3
Ja'Lynn Polk
They read the board right and Ja'Lynn Polk was the payoff at slot 88. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick126
Rnd4
Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
A tidy bit of business in the Round 4 slot, where Jarvis Brownlee Jr. graded well above the range. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick169
Rnd5
Walter Rouse
They did well to land Walter Rouse in the 169th pick, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick174
Rnd5
Trevin Wallace
They left a pile of value on the table to take Trevin Wallace this early at Round 5, Pick 38. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick202
Rnd6
Jha'Quan Jackson
Jha'Quan Jackson at pick No. 202 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick216
Rnd6
Julian Pearl
Julian Pearl at the Round 6 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick233
Rnd7
Jaylan Ford
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jaylan Ford in No. 233, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick244
Rnd7
Khalid Duke
They reached a country mile for Khalid Duke at the 244th overall pick, and the board is aghast. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick245
Rnd7
Ryan Flournoy
Ryan Flournoy in slot 245 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
