Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys won the night they stopped Jones from sliding. Grade: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Sheridan Jones had no business being available in the 244th pick, and the Cowboys did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

Every board in the league had Davis lower, and that gap is the story. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the 24th pick they get a blindside protector. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
They did well to land Braden Fiske in slot 56, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick87 Rnd3 Ray Davis
Ray Davis in pick 87 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick174 Rnd5 Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington in the Round 5 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick216 Rnd6 Tatum Bethune
A premium they did not need to pay, Tatum Bethune a notch or two before his time. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick233 Rnd7 Kalen DeLoach
Kalen DeLoach at No. 233 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick244 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
Circle this one: Sheridan Jones at the 244th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
