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

The Cowboys put a flag in the ground for Jaydon Blue, 73 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

The Watts value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They will regret leaving linebacker for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In slot 27 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, outstanding value to boot.
Pick44 Rnd2 Josh Conerly Jr.
They did well to land Josh Conerly Jr. in pick 44, just ahead of his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick59 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
Nothing to complain about; TreVeyon Henderson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick76 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
They will replay Xavier Watts at the 76th pick for years; that is how good the value is. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick149 Rnd5 Kyle McCord
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Kyle McCord in pick No. 149, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick170 Rnd5 Logan Brown
Logan Brown in Round 5, Pick 32 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick171 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant in the 171st pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dont'e Thornton Jr.. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick188 Rnd6 Alijah Huzzie
Alijah Huzzie in the Round 6 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick211 Rnd6 Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson in No. 211 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick243 Rnd7 Jaydon Blue
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jaydon Blue this early at pick No. 243. The roster fit checks out.
Pick247 Rnd7 LaJohntay Wester
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and LaJohntay Wester at pick 247 is the proof. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
