Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueA NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys won the night they stopped Wallace from sliding. Grade: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Cowboys were there to profit. Caedan Wallace, the No. 135 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 244th overall pick.

The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 JC Latham
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a cornerstone up front at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Graham Barton at pick 56 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick87 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley in the 87th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Isaiah Davis
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Isaiah Davis in the Round 5 slot, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Circle this one: Jordan Magee at slot 216 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick233 Rnd7 Fabien Lovett
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at No. 233 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick244 Rnd7 Caedan Wallace
Somehow Caedan Wallace was still sitting there in pick No. 244, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
