Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA FutureB-
The Cowboys cashed the board's mistake on Mims: B.

Call it larceny. Amarius Mims sat on the board until slot 58, and the Cowboys did not need to be asked twice. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

That linebacker hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Walker reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Spending an early pick on edge rusher with linebacker and quarterback open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick 29 they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. More want than need.
Pick58 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
You do not let an offensive lineman like Amarius Mims reach pick No. 58 and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick89 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
They paid a round early for Devontez Walker in the 89th pick, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick90 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
The board had cheaper options than Braelon Allen at slot 90, and it noticed. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick91 Rnd3 Adisa Isaac
A want over a need in Round 3, Pick 28: Adisa Isaac adds an edge rusher while linebacker and quarterback keeps waiting.
Pick92 Rnd3 Nazir Stackhouse
They paid sticker price for Nazir Stackhouse in the Round 3 slot, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick126 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in the 126th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick128 Rnd4 Nehemiah Pritchett
A premium they did not need to pay, Nehemiah Pritchett a notch or two before his time. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
They paid up for Theo Johnson at pick 174 when waiting would have done the job. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick177 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at the 177th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick247 Rnd7 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at pick No. 247 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
