Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Cowboys turned the phones into found money: B+.

Nobody had Zion Logue this high, and it is not close. The Cowboys reached 56 spots to get him at slot 244.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In slot 27 they get a building block for the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
They took Jonathon Brooks at par in the 38th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick56 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Amarius Mims in the Round 2 slot, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jermaine Burton
Jermaine Burton slid further than he should have, and the 87th overall pick is lovely value for the wide receiver. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick90 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
They will replay Kingsley Suamataia at pick 90 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick95 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine at pick No. 95 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick106 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
A premium they did not need to pay, Brenden Rice a notch or two before his time. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick128 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Value said wait; Tommy Eichenberg in the Round 4 slot says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick131 Rnd4 Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall at pick No. 131 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick133 Rnd4 Marist Liufau
A big swing on Marist Liufau at Round 4, Pick 33, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick138 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
This one needs a full-page explanation: Khristian Boyd in the 138th overall pick, miles early. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick174 Rnd5 Elijah Jones
A cornerback of that caliber at slot 174 is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
By-the-book stuff, Jaylan Ford at the 216th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick233 Rnd7 Darius Muasau
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Darius Muasau at No. 233. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick244 Rnd7 Zion Logue
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Zion Logue well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
