Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys cashed the board's mistake on Bowman Jr.: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Cowboys were there to profit. Billy Bowman Jr., the No. 109 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 209th pick. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

They will need Vann to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Ashton Jeanty at pick No. 12. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick44 Rnd2 Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond is a better player than pick 44 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Tyleik Williams
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at No. 76 is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick148 Rnd5 Davin Vann
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Davin Vann well ahead of where he belonged. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick170 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
They robbed the room for Smael Mondon Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick171 Rnd5 Simeon Barrow Jr.
Simeon Barrow Jr. in the 171st pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick173 Rnd5 Addison West
No drama and no debate, Addison West went about where he belonged in slot 173. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick186 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
They went early on Miles Frazier in the 186th overall pick, and the value did not follow. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick209 Rnd6 Billy Bowman Jr.
Taking Billy Bowman Jr. in Round 6, Pick 34 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick234 Rnd7 Aydan White
Aydan White at the 234th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick248 Rnd7 Elijah Arroyo
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Elijah Arroyo in slot 248, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
