Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Cowboys, and a B- to prove it.

The Cowboys went off the board in a big way for Kalil Alexander, 60 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
A clean, defensible pick in the 12th pick with a little surplus value in Arvell Reese. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick20 Rnd1 R Mason Thomas
In No. 20 they get juice off the edge, even if it was a touch early. More want than need.
Pick112 Rnd4 Gracen Halton
Value said wait; Gracen Halton in pick No. 112 says they were not listening. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick150 Rnd5 Kage Casey
Kage Casey in the 150th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick177 Rnd5 Bobby Jamison-Travis
A big swing on Bobby Jamison-Travis at slot 177, well ahead of any board in the building. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jimmy Rolder
A straight-up fair deal on Jimmy Rolder at pick 215, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick221 Rnd7 Noah Whittington
Noah Whittington at slot 221 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick225 Rnd7 Kalil Alexander
They talked themselves into Kalil Alexander at pick 225, and the board did not agree. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
