Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in pick No. 171: the Cowboys steal Howard and grade out a B.

Call it larceny. Will Howard sat on the board until the 171st pick, and the Cowboys did not need to be asked twice. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The cost of the Sorrell reach is exactly the players who went right after him. On the needs board they went 8 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In pick No. 12 they get a weapon on the perimeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44 Rnd2 Dylan Sampson
Dylan Sampson at Round 2, Pick 12 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick76 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
They paid sticker price for Carson Schwesinger in the 76th overall pick, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick170 Rnd5 Aeneas Peebles
Aeneas Peebles at the 170th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick171 Rnd5 Will Howard
They will replay Will Howard at slot 171 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick174 Rnd5 Nohl Williams
They took Nohl Williams at par in No. 174, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick188 Rnd6 Addison West
Addison West at pick 188 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick211 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in the Round 6 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick247 Rnd7 Barryn Sorrell
They reached into another round for Barryn Sorrell, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It adds depth where they could use a little.
