Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

The Cowboys torched the value chart for Jasheen Davis, taking him 112 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

They banked enough surplus on Stutsman to cover a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the Round 1 slot they get a true top target. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick45 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
You do not let a tight end like Tyler Warren reach pick 45 and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick76 Rnd3 Omarion Hampton
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Omarion Hampton in the 76th overall pick, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick116 Rnd4 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge in Round 4, Pick 15 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick150 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
A linebacker of that caliber at slot 150 is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick170 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
A conviction pick on JJ Pegues at the 170th pick that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick172 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at slot 172 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Robert Spears-Jennings
Robert Spears-Jennings at the 174th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick190 Rnd6 Xavier Scott
Somehow Xavier Scott was still sitting there in the Round 6 slot, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick211 Rnd6 Oluwafemi Oladejo
They left a pile of value on the table to take Oluwafemi Oladejo this early at pick No. 211. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick249 Rnd7 Jasheen Davis
Jasheen Davis at pick 249 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
