Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C
ValueF NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys found their guy under center in Dart: C.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Cowboys spent pick 150 on DJ Uiagalelei, a name the board had a full 125 spots lower. A weekend of give and take that grades a C.

Jaxson Dart gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

They went 1 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

So much rides on Jaxson Dart that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jaxson Dart
In slot 12 they get a passer to set the clock by, a steep price for the projection.
Pick44 Rnd2 Quinn Ewers
They left a pile of value on the table to take Quinn Ewers this early at pick No. 44. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick76 Rnd3 Kyle McCord
Kyle McCord in the 76th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick150 Rnd5 DJ Uiagalelei
They talked themselves into DJ Uiagalelei at Round 5, Pick 11, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
Pick170 Rnd5 Max Brosmer
A wild overpay on Max Brosmer in the 170th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick172 Rnd5 James Burnip
James Burnip at pick 172 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick174 Rnd5 Luke Elzinga
Value said wait; Luke Elzinga in the 174th overall pick says they were not listening. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick190 Rnd6 Alex Mastromanno
They went early on Alex Mastromanno in pick 190, and the value did not follow. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jeremy Crawshaw
They paid up for Jeremy Crawshaw at pick No. 211 when waiting would have done the job. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick249 Rnd7 Kai Kroeger
Kai Kroeger in slot 249 is fair value, right on his grade. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
