Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureA+
Larceny in the Round 7 slot lands the Cowboys a C+, Mondon Jr. and all.

The Cowboys spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Smael Mondon Jr., the No. 110 name on the board, in No. 237. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C+.

Reaching for Griffith left real value on the table behind him. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick53 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They barely believed it either: Jalon Walker still on the board at Round 2, Pick 21. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
They robbed the room for Omarion Hampton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick84 Rnd3 Xavier Restrepo
You do not let a wide receiver like Xavier Restrepo reach the Round 3 slot and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick150 Rnd5 Rylie Mills
They read the board right and Rylie Mills was the payoff at No. 150. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick154 Rnd5 Jackson Slater
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jackson Slater in the 154th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick170 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Taking Cam Skattebo in slot 170 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick172 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at pick No. 172 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It fills a real need, too.
Pick174 Rnd5 CJ West
A real head-scratcher, CJ West in the 174th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick190 Rnd6 Tosh Baker
Tosh Baker at the Round 6 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick211 Rnd6 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at pick No. 211 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick237 Rnd7 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in the 237th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick249 Rnd7 Karene Reid
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 31 is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
