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

The war room fell hard for Jasheen Davis, and it showed at the 173rd overall pick: 135 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

That Stutsman pick is the receipt they will wave around later. 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.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick No. 12 they get an every-down engine for the run game at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They will replay Nick Emmanwori at slot 44 for years; that is how good the value is. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick76 Rnd3 Tyler Booker
Steal is underselling it; Tyler Booker at Round 3, Pick 12 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick148 Rnd5 Tez Johnson
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Tez Johnson in No. 148, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick168 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick170 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
Vernon Broughton in pick 170 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jasheen Davis
Jasheen Davis at pick 173 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
Taking Jason Marshall Jr. in the 186th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick209 Rnd6 Trey Wedig
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Trey Wedig. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick248 Rnd7 Graham Mertz
A real head-scratcher, Graham Mertz in slot 248 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
