Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Cowboys: B.

Every other box got a look, but quarterback did not. The Cowboys will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

The Prysock reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In No. 12 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick20 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In the 20th overall pick they get the heartbeat of the defense. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick112 Rnd4 Will Lee III
A straight-up fair deal on Will Lee III at the 112th pick, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick152 Rnd5 Kage Casey
Fair-plus on Kage Casey, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick177 Rnd5 Ephesians Prysock
They paid up for Ephesians Prysock at pick No. 177 when waiting would have done the job. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick180 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell at the Round 5 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick221 Rnd7 Isaiah Nwokobia
They did well to land Isaiah Nwokobia in pick 221, just ahead of his grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
Jeff Caldwell in slot 225 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
