Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Cowboys.

The Cowboys did not so much draft Trey Moore as overpay for him, 66 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Muhammad pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In the Round 1 slot they get a three-down runner, outstanding value to boot.
Pick20 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
Olaivavega Ioane at pick 20 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick112 Rnd4 Malik Muhammad
Malik Muhammad in the 112th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick150 Rnd5 Trey Moore
They left a pile of value on the table to take Trey Moore this early at pick No. 150. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick177 Rnd5 Josh Cameron
No drama and no debate, Josh Cameron went about where he belonged in the 177th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jimmy Rolder
Jimmy Rolder in Round 6, Pick 36 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick221 Rnd7 Tyler Onyedim
Tyler Onyedim in pick 221 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick225 Rnd7 Anez Cooper
A big swing on Anez Cooper at the 225th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
