Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in pick 174 lands the Cowboys a B, Gabriel and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Dillon Gabriel tumbling to the Cowboys in the 174th overall pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In the 12th pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Nice patience on Omarion Hampton, who had no business lasting to No. 44. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
Jalen Royals at Round 3, Pick 12 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick150 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
Brashard Smith at the 150th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick170 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
Somehow Tommi Hill was still sitting there in pick 170, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick172 Rnd5 Lander Barton
You do not let a linebacker like Lander Barton reach the Round 5 slot and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick174 Rnd5 Dillon Gabriel
Circle this one: Dillon Gabriel at pick No. 174 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick190 Rnd6 Earnest Greene III
Earnest Greene III in slot 190 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong at the 211th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick249 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
Taking Cam Jackson in pick No. 249 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
