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

The rest of the league had time to spare on Dominic Zvada; the Cowboys did not wait, grabbing him 69 spots ahead at Round 7, Pick 18. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The McNeil-Warren pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.

The Cowboys indulged a want in McNeil-Warren while a need in wide receiver, offensive lineman and other spots stayed open. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In No. 20 they get an island corner, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick45 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Nice patience on Dillon Thieneman, who had no business lasting to pick 45. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick49 Rnd2 Kenyon Sadiq
Kenyon Sadiq in the 49th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick67 Rnd3 CJ Allen
CJ Allen in pick No. 67 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick102 Rnd4 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
A curious use of the Round 4 slot. Wide receiver, offensive lineman and other spots needed the pick; a safety in Emmanuel McNeil-Warren did not.
Pick112 Rnd4 Julian Neal
Julian Neal at slot 112 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick161 Rnd5 Drew Allar
The board had Drew Allar higher than No. 161, and the quarterback fell to them anyway. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick177 Rnd5 Kyle Louis
Circle this one: Kyle Louis at pick 177 is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jerry Wilson
Jerry Wilson at Round 6, Pick 36 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick221 Rnd7 Taylen Green
Somehow Taylen Green was still sitting there in slot 221, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick234 Rnd7 Dominic Zvada
Dominic Zvada at the 234th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
