Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueA+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Cowboys let Stewart fall and pounced. Final grade: D.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Josaiah Stewart got past him. The Cowboys do not have to explain a thing at the 247th overall pick. A D that will need time and luck to look better.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and cornerback is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
The board had Kelvin Banks Jr. higher than the 16th overall pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick44 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Walter Nolen in No. 44, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick75 Rnd3 Nick Emmanwori
A safety of that caliber at slot 75 is the definition of value, full stop. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick76 Rnd3 T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders in Round 3, Pick 12 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick78 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at the 78th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick100 Rnd3 Tre Harris
They robbed the room for Tre Harris here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick110 Rnd4 Wyatt Milum
Circle this one: Wyatt Milum at pick No. 110 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at pick 113 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick114 Rnd4 Ashton Gillotte
Taking Ashton Gillotte in the Round 4 slot is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick168 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
They will replay Nicholas Singleton at pick No. 168 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick170 Rnd5 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at the 170th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick171 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Steal is underselling it; Cam Skattebo at No. 171 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick187 Rnd6 Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart in the 187th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick209 Rnd6 Alfred Collins
They barely believed it either: Alfred Collins still on the board at Round 6, Pick 34. It fills a real need, too.
Pick247 Rnd7 Josaiah Stewart
Josaiah Stewart in pick 247 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
