Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C
ValueC NeedB TradesD FutureB-
The Cowboys landed square in the muddy middle: C.

The Cowboys treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending slot 233 on Trente Jones a full 74 spots early. A mixed bag that lands at C.

However the rest shakes out, Washington at that price is a win they earned. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the 24th pick they get a problem off the edge. Need was not the driver here.
Pick56 Rnd2 Blake Corum
They left a pile of value on the table to take Blake Corum this early at pick No. 56. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick87 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
A real head-scratcher, Marist Liufau in pick 87 is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick129 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jordan Travis in Round 4, Pick 29, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
Pick174 Rnd5 Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse in slot 174 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick216 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
The board fumbled Tahj Washington all the way to No. 216, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick233 Rnd7 Trente Jones
Trente Jones in pick 233 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick244 Rnd7 Ryan Cooper Jr.
Value with a capital V on Ryan Cooper Jr. in No. 244, a genuine coup. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
