Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The jury is out on the Cowboys. For now, C+.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Cowboys reached some 59 spots for Alfred Collins, and value like that does not grow back. For now it grades a C+, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. That is a running back worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Deone Walker
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get a run-stuffing presence up front, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
A premium they did not need to pay, Jonah Savaiinaea a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick98 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins is a better player than slot 98 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick99 Rnd3 Jaeden Roberts
They reached a country mile for Jaeden Roberts at the 99th pick, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick117 Rnd4 Karene Reid
The board had Karene Reid higher than the 117th overall pick, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick153 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
They jumped the gun on Quincy Riley, taking him earlier than his grade liked. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick169 Rnd5 Nazir Stackhouse
Nazir Stackhouse at Round 5, Pick 31 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick170 Rnd5 Dane Key
Dane Key at pick No. 170 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick171 Rnd5 Jaydn Ott
A reach on Jaydn Ott in No. 171; the board had better options right there. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick189 Rnd6 T.J. Sanders
A big swing on T.J. Sanders at pick 189, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick208 Rnd6 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at the 208th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
