Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureC
The Cowboys won the night they stopped Brooks from sliding. Grade: B-.

Call it larceny. Tahj Brooks sat on the board until pick 190, and the Cowboys did not need to be asked twice. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

They are betting Crenshaw-Dickson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

They bet on numbers rather than a single high pick.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In pick No. 27 they get a problem off the edge, outstanding value to boot.
Pick55 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
A straight-up fair deal on Alfred Collins at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick59 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at the 59th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick76 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger in slot 76 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick86 Rnd3 Jack Bech
The board had Jack Bech higher than Round 3, Pick 22, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick137 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Cam Skattebo in pick 137, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick170 Rnd5 Cody Simon
A linebacker of that caliber at No. 170 is the definition of value, full stop. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick172 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans in the 172nd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jaylen Reed
A conviction pick on Jaylen Reed at the Round 5 slot that the board grades a round light. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick178 Rnd5 Logan Brown
Logan Brown in pick 178 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick187 Rnd6 CJ West
CJ West at No. 187 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick190 Rnd6 Tahj Brooks
Steal is underselling it; Tahj Brooks at the 190th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick211 Rnd6 Karene Reid
Karene Reid at pick No. 211 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick249 Rnd7 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
A real head-scratcher, Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in Round 7, Pick 31 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
