Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B

Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Cowboys.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Cowboys took Christian Jones a full 23 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. No fireworks, but a solid B.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 JC Latham
In pick No. 24 they get protection for the quarterback. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in Round 2, Pick 24 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick124 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at the 124th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick174 Rnd5 Christian Jones
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Christian Jones well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Donovan Jennings
No drama and no debate, Donovan Jennings went about where he belonged in the 245th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
