Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueB NeedA- TradesA FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Cowboys for Hopper: B+.

The Cowboys spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Ty'Ron Hopper, the No. 156 name on the board, in Round 5, Pick 38. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In the 26th pick they get a true top target at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kingsley Suamataia. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick87 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Junior Colson at pick No. 87 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick124 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
They did well to land Leonard Taylor III in the 124th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick133 Rnd4 Johnny Dixon
A straight-up fair deal on Johnny Dixon at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick163 Rnd5 Moose Muhammad III
Moose Muhammad III at slot 163 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick174 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
The board fumbled Ty'Ron Hopper all the way to No. 174, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick212 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in Round 6, Pick 37 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
The board had Jase McClellan higher than pick 245, and the running back fell to them anyway. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
