Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Cowboys, and a B to prove it.

Nobody had Jasheen Davis this high, and it is not close. The Cowboys reached 130 spots to get him at the 173rd overall pick.

That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the tight end spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick 12 they get an every-down engine for the run game at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders at the 44th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in the Round 3 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at the 148th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick168 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
They robbed the room for Pat Bryant here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick170 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
They barely believed it either: Lathan Ransom still on the board at slot 170. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jasheen Davis
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jasheen Davis. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick186 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
A slide stopped in the Round 6 slot, with Joshua Gray worth more than the price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick209 Rnd6 Aydan White
Aydan White in pick No. 209 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick248 Rnd7 Will Rogers
They talked themselves into Will Rogers at pick 248, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
