shanewelborn DRAFTING FOR THECowboys
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall
B-
ValueC+
NeedB+
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Cowboys won the night they stopped Monangai from sliding. Grade: B-. You could see the war room lean forward. Kyle Monangai at No. 239 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. If Gillotte pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Matthew Golden
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44
Rnd2
TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at the 44th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick76
Rnd3
Ashton Gillotte
Ashton Gillotte at pick 76 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick149
Rnd5
O'Donnell Fortune
O'Donnell Fortune at slot 149 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick174
Rnd5
CJ West
They jumped the gun on CJ West, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick204
Rnd6
Jay Higgins
No edge and no loss on Jay Higgins in No. 204; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick211
Rnd6
Addison West
Addison West at the 211th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick217
Rnd7
Carson Vinson
The board had cheaper options than Carson Vinson at the Round 7 slot, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick239
Rnd7
Kyle Monangai
Kyle Monangai in pick 239 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick247
Rnd7
Hunter Wohler
A wild overpay on Hunter Wohler in the 247th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
