Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA- FutureB
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cowboys: B.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Cowboys started one anyway for Tommy Eichenberg, 36 picks ahead of schedule.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. Melton falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
In No. 24 they get a weapon on the perimeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick87 Rnd3 Audric Estime
They paid a round early for Audric Estime in the Round 3 slot, more than the board wanted. It fills a real need, too.
Pick89 Rnd3 Tommy Eichenberg
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tommy Eichenberg in slot 89, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick101 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe at pick No. 101 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick124 Rnd4 Max Melton
A tidy bit of business in pick 124, where Max Melton graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick168 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
No drama and no debate, Roger Rosengarten went about where he belonged in the 168th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick174 Rnd5 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs in slot 174 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick180 Rnd6 Sam Hartman
A big swing on Sam Hartman at the 180th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick212 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
They liked Trevor Keegan enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 212. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick245 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
They paid sticker price for Dwight McGlothern in pick No. 245, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
