Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys let McGlothern fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Dwight McGlothern got past him. The Cowboys do not have to explain a thing at the 233rd pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The Wallace pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In the 24th pick they get a problem off the edge, outstanding value to boot. Need was not the driver here.
Pick56 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. at pick 56 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick87 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dominick Puni. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Trevin Wallace
They left a pile of value on the table to take Trevin Wallace this early at the Round 5 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick216 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
Value with a capital V on Rasheen Ali in the 216th overall pick, a genuine coup. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick233 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Dwight McGlothern in Round 7, Pick 13, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick244 Rnd7 Eric Watts
A slide stopped in slot 244, with Eric Watts worth more than the price. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
