Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureB
The Cowboys bled value on every deal, hence the D.

The Cowboys treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 102 on Michael Pratt a full 36 spots early. Hard to defend, and the D reflects that.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Jones.

On the needs board they went 7 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, tight end very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In No. 24 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in the 35th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
They took Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at par in slot 56, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick87 Rnd3 Blake Corum
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Blake Corum. It fills a real need, too.
Pick102 Rnd4 Michael Pratt
A real head-scratcher, Michael Pratt in pick No. 102 is miles ahead of his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick141 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
They paid up for Justin Eboigbe at the Round 5 slot when waiting would have done the job. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jordan Jefferson in pick No. 165, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
They will replay Jarrian Jones at slot 173 for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford at pick 213 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick231 Rnd7 Keaton Bills
Keaton Bills in the 231st pick is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick242 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson at No. 242 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
