Draft Grade — Cowboys

Larceny in pick No. 87 lands the Cowboys a B, Suamataia and all.

The Cowboys spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Kingsley Suamataia, the No. 54 name on the board, in pick 87. No fireworks, but a solid B.

For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In the Round 1 slot they get a potential shutdown corner at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They paid sticker price for T'Vondre Sweat in the 56th overall pick, and that is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick87 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at slot 87 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick124 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine in the 124th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick174 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
The board had Joe Milton III higher than Round 5, Pick 38, and the quarterback fell to them anyway. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
A tidy bit of business in pick 212, where Jared Wiley graded well above the range. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick245 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson slipping to pick No. 245 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
