Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Cowboys would have aced it. Hayden Conner at pick No. 211 is 56 spots clear of where he belonged. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Nash value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In the 12th pick they get a ballhawk on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in No. 44 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick76 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
A quiet steal in slot 76: Demetrius Knight Jr. for less than the market said. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick149 Rnd5 Damien Martinez
Damien Martinez at the 149th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick171 Rnd5 Nick Nash
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Nick Nash in the Round 5 slot, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick174 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
The board fumbled Bhayshul Tuten all the way to Round 5, Pick 36, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick204 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
Nazir Stackhouse in the 204th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick211 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
A wild overpay on Hayden Conner in the Round 6 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick239 Rnd7 Donovan Smith
Value said wait; Donovan Smith in pick 239 says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
Pick247 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Garrett Dellinger well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
