Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureC
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Cowboys to a D-.

The Cowboys looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Taulia Tagovailoa at pick 216 regardless, 71 picks early. The math is unkind, and the D- follows.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Spending an early pick on edge rusher with cornerback, tight end and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In pick No. 11 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick23 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the 23rd overall pick they get a disruptor off the edge. Need was not the driver here.
Pick24 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. at No. 24 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick56 Rnd2 Junior Colson
Good price on Junior Colson in Round 2, Pick 24, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick57 Rnd2 Trey Benson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Trey Benson in slot 57, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick87 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
A conviction pick on Christian Mahogany at the 87th pick that the board grades a round light. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick129 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
A want over a need in the Round 4 slot: Justin Eboigbe adds an edge rusher while cornerback, tight end and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick174 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper in slot 174 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick216 Rnd6 Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia Tagovailoa at Round 6, Pick 41 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick244 Rnd7 Jordan Whittington
By-the-book stuff, Jordan Whittington at pick No. 244 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
