Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Cowboys and Egbuka: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Emeka Egbuka, the No. 29 name on the board, stolen at the Round 3 slot. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The Vann reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In No. 12 they get a problem off the edge, and a steal at that.
Pick44 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Omarion Hampton at Round 2, Pick 12. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick76 Rnd3 Emeka Egbuka
They barely believed it either: Emeka Egbuka still on the board at the Round 3 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick157 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams in pick 157 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at slot 174 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick204 Rnd6 Caleb Rogers
Caleb Rogers in the 204th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick211 Rnd6 Alijah Huzzie
They paid sticker price for Alijah Huzzie in the 211th overall pick, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick217 Rnd7 Joshua Gray
Value with a capital V on Joshua Gray in pick No. 217, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick235 Rnd7 Cam Horsley
They took Cam Horsley at par in pick No. 235, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick239 Rnd7 Davin Vann
Davin Vann in the 239th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jackson Hawes
A reach for Jackson Hawes in slot 247; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
