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

The rest of the league will want that one back. CJ West tumbling to the Cowboys in the Round 7 slot is a gift they did not have to think twice about. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 12th overall pick they get a featured back, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Value with a capital V on Emeka Egbuka in Round 2, Pick 12, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick76 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger at pick 76 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick149 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Nice patience on Malachi Moore, who had no business lasting to slot 149. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick174 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Willie Lampkin. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick204 Rnd6 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
A straight-up fair deal on Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at the Round 6 slot, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
Good price on Jason Marshall Jr. in the 211th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick217 Rnd7 CJ West
Somehow CJ West was still sitting there in No. 217, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick239 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
Carson Vinson at Round 7, Pick 23 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Theo Wease Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Theo Wease Jr. at slot 247 squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
