Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Cowboys robbed the room for Tuten. Final grade: B+.

Call it larceny. Bhayshul Tuten sat on the board until pick No. 211, and the Cowboys did not need to be asked twice.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The Vann reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.

The Adonai Mitchell pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 14th pick they get a three-down runner, outstanding value to boot.
Pick44 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
They did well to land Tyleik Williams in pick No. 44, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at Round 3, Pick 12 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick90 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at the 90th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick127 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
A reach for Malachi Moore in slot 127; a little patience would have been rewarded. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick149 Rnd5 Kyle McCord
Kyle McCord in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick171 Rnd5 Que Robinson
A conviction pick on Que Robinson at No. 171 that the board grades a round light. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick174 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A reach on Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick 174; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick204 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Good price on Jay Higgins in the 204th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick211 Rnd6 Bhayshul Tuten
They will replay Bhayshul Tuten at the 211th pick for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick239 Rnd7 Davin Vann
Davin Vann at pick No. 239 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick247 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
They liked Tonka Hemingway enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 247. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
