Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Gabriel should have been long gone. The Cowboys pounced, and earned a B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Cowboys watched Dillon Gabriel slide 83 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

If Oliver pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptive interior force at fair value.
Pick44 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at the 44th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick76 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
The board fumbled TreVeyon Henderson all the way to No. 76, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick150 Rnd5 Isaiah Bond
Somehow Isaiah Bond was still sitting there in Round 5, Pick 11, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick170 Rnd5 Alijah Huzzie
They reached a country mile for Alijah Huzzie at the 170th pick, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick172 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at pick 172 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick174 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They took Dont'e Thornton Jr. at par in slot 174, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick190 Rnd6 Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson at pick No. 190 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick211 Rnd6 Dillon Gabriel
They robbed the room for Dillon Gabriel here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick249 Rnd7 Collin Oliver
They left a pile of value on the table to take Collin Oliver this early at the Round 7 slot. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
