Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
Larceny in slot 116 lands the Cowboys a B, Jackson and all.

Call it larceny. Donovan Jackson sat on the board until the Round 4 slot, and the Cowboys did not need to be asked twice.

The Williams reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 12th overall pick they get a three-down runner, and a steal at that.
Pick45 Rnd2 T.J. Sanders
Fair-plus on T.J. Sanders, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jack Bech
Jack Bech at pick No. 76 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick116 Rnd4 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at slot 116 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick150 Rnd5 Kobe King
A slide stopped in pick 150, with Kobe King worth more than the price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick165 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
No edge and no loss on Dorian Strong in Round 5, Pick 26; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick170 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
They paid sticker price for Chase Lundt in No. 170, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick172 Rnd5 Kurtis Rourke
Kurtis Rourke in the 172nd pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick174 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick 174 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick198 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
The board had Cobee Bryant higher than No. 198, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jack Kiser in Round 6, Pick 33. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick216 Rnd6 John Williams
John Williams in slot 216 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick227 Rnd7 CJ West
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and CJ West at the Round 7 slot is the proof. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick234 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
No drama and no debate, Miles Frazier went about where he belonged in pick No. 234. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick249 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
Jake Briningstool slid further than he should have, and the 249th overall pick is lovely value for the tight end. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick257 Rnd7 Maxen Hook
Maxen Hook in the 257th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
