Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys robbed the room for Trapilo. Final grade: B.

Call it larceny. Ozzy Trapilo sat on the board until pick No. 171, and the Cowboys did not need to be asked twice. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

Every board in the league had Sorrell lower, and that gap is the story. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In slot 12 they get a bell-cow for the offense, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Tre Harris
No edge and no loss on Tre Harris in No. 44; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
No drama and no debate, Carson Schwesinger went about where he belonged in the 76th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish in pick 149 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick171 Rnd5 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at Round 5, Pick 33 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick174 Rnd5 Kyle McCord
They will replay Kyle McCord at pick No. 174 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick204 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
The board fumbled Jaylen Reed all the way to the 204th overall pick, and they scooped it up. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick211 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner at the Round 6 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jahvaree Ritzie
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jahvaree Ritzie in No. 239, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick247 Rnd7 Barryn Sorrell
Barryn Sorrell in the 247th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
