Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
A passer of the future in McCarthy, and a B+, for the Cowboys.

The Cowboys went off the board in a big way for Trajan Jeffcoat, 64 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

They have staked the next five years on J.J. McCarthy, which is the only story that really matters here. That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In slot 24 they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick67 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Xavier Worthy at the 67th pick is the proof. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick87 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni in the 87th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick100 Rnd3 Audric Estime
A straight-up fair deal on Audric Estime at No. 100, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick174 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
A slide stopped in Round 6, Pick 41, with Jaylan Ford worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick233 Rnd7 Myles Harden
Myles Harden in the 233rd pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick244 Rnd7 Trajan Jeffcoat
Trajan Jeffcoat at No. 244 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
