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

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Cowboys spent No. 242 on Trajan Jeffcoat, a name most had 61 spots down the list.

A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want. The Rosemy-Jacksaint pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick No. 24 they get protection for the quarterback. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
A tidy little value on Payton Wilson in the 56th overall pick, a step better than break-even. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving at the 87th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
They paid a round early for Jordan Jefferson in pick 173, more than the board wanted. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick213 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at the Round 6 slot is the proof. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick231 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Nice patience on Frank Gore Jr., who had no business lasting to No. 231. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick242 Rnd7 Trajan Jeffcoat
Trajan Jeffcoat at the 242nd pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A minor itch, scratched.
