Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Cowboys: B.

The Cowboys clearly saw something nobody else did in Javion Cohen, taking him 25 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. That Alt pick is the receipt they will wave around later. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In No. 24 they get a building block for the line at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Trey Benson
Trey Benson at pick 56 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick87 Rnd3 Spencer Rattler
Spencer Rattler at Round 3, Pick 24 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick125 Rnd4 Javion Cohen
A wild overpay on Javion Cohen in the Round 4 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick173 Rnd5 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in the 173rd overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick213 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Somehow Josh Proctor was still sitting there in slot 213, and they pounced on premier safety value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick242 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Sheridan Jones in the 242nd pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
