Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B

Larceny in pick No. 130 lands the Cowboys a B, Sturdivant and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. J. Michael Sturdivant tumbling to the Cowboys in No. 130 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

Every board in the league had Henderson lower, and that gap is the story. That running back hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Kalen King
The board had Kalen King higher than slot 62, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick93 Rnd3 Quinn Ewers
They will replay Quinn Ewers at pick 93 for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick130 Rnd4 J. Michael Sturdivant
Steal is underselling it; J. Michael Sturdivant at No. 130 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop at Round 5, Pick 38 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jason Henderson
Jason Henderson at the 212th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick251 Rnd7 Trey Wedig
They paid up for Trey Wedig at the 251st pick when waiting would have done the job. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
