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

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Cowboys spent the 174th overall pick on Jalen Coker, a name most had 37 spots down the list. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Mims. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the 32nd pick they get a long-term starter on the line at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
Zach Frazier in the 56th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick87 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in pick No. 87 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick105 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen in Round 4, Pick 5 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It fills a real need, too.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jalen Coker
A real head-scratcher, Jalen Coker in slot 174 is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick216 Rnd6 Myles Murphy
They talked themselves into Myles Murphy at No. 216, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick233 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
Nothing to complain about; Trey Taylor went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick244 Rnd7 Eyabi Okie-Anoma
They let Eyabi Okie-Anoma come to them and pounced at No. 244. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
