Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The Cowboys' one glaring miss is quarterback, a need they left exactly as they found it. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

Greenfield at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick 24 they get a blindside protector. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in slot 56 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick87 Rnd3 Trey Benson
No drama and no debate, Trey Benson went about where he belonged in pick No. 87. The roster fit checks out.
Pick173 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Nice patience on Luke McCaffrey, who had no business lasting to the 173rd overall pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick213 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
They paid sticker price for Josh Proctor in the Round 6 slot, and that is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick231 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Garret Greenfield at No. 231 is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick242 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
A quiet steal in Round 7, Pick 22: Sheridan Jones for less than the market said. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
