Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Cowboys: B.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named quarterback, a need the Cowboys walked right past.

Landing Tampa that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Reaching for Walker left real value on the table behind him.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In No. 27 they get a bendy edge with upside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick58 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa is a better player than Round 2, Pick 26 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick89 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
A reach for Devontez Walker in the 89th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick90 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
They went early on Braelon Allen in the Round 3 slot, and the value did not follow. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick126 Rnd4 Justin Rogers
A reach on Justin Rogers in pick 126; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson in pick No. 174 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick212 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
A reasonable price with a little left over, Curtis Jacobs in the 212th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick247 Rnd7 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at slot 247 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
