Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Cowboys: B.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Trevin Wallace, 59 picks early at pick No. 174.

The Jones value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In pick 24 they get a blindside protector at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kingsley Suamataia. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick87 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson at No. 87 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick113 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
A reach on McKinnley Jackson in the Round 4 slot; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick174 Rnd5 Trevin Wallace
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Trevin Wallace. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd6 Ryan Flournoy
They read the board right and Ryan Flournoy was the payoff at slot 216. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick233 Rnd7 Myles Harden
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Myles Harden in pick No. 233, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick244 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
Sheridan Jones in No. 244 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
