Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC
The Cowboys worked the phones like thieves and earned a B.

Nobody had Jahvaree Ritzie this high, and it is not close. The Cowboys reached 38 spots to get him at the Round 7 slot.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The Blue value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Omarion Hampton
In pick No. 20 they get a bell-cow for the offense, though they paid up to get him. A real need, handled.
Pick21 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In the 21st overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 2 slot with a little surplus value in Alfred Collins. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick89 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at the 89th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick149 Rnd5 Kobe King
They barely believed it either: Kobe King still on the board at No. 149. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick174 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at pick 174 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick204 Rnd6 Jaydon Blue
Steal is underselling it; Jaydon Blue at the 204th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick207 Rnd6 Tyler Cooper
They did well to land Tyler Cooper in the 207th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick211 Rnd6 Howard Cross III
This one needs a full-page explanation: Howard Cross III in pick 211, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jahvaree Ritzie
Jahvaree Ritzie in No. 239 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
