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

The rest of the league had time to spare on Jasheen Davis; the Cowboys did not wait, grabbing him 108 spots ahead at pick No. 247.

The Thomas steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The skill positions did well by the weekend. The phones were busy but the ledger stayed level.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
They took Matthew Golden at par in slot 12, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick45 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
No edge and no loss on Kaleb Johnson in the 45th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick76 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Fair-plus on Maxwell Hairston, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick117 Rnd4 Chris Paul Jr.
They robbed the room for Chris Paul Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick149 Rnd5 Azareye'h Thomas
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Azareye'h Thomas in pick 149, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick171 Rnd5 Jalen Milroe
The board fumbled Jalen Milroe all the way to No. 171, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick174 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
A wild overpay on Oronde Gadsden II in pick No. 174, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick204 Rnd6 Connor Colby
Connor Colby in the Round 6 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick211 Rnd6 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in the 211th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick239 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
A big swing on Tonka Hemingway at slot 239, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jasheen Davis
They reached into another round for Jasheen Davis, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
