Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB TradesC FutureD
The Cowboys land in the muddy middle: C+.

Nobody else had Jordan Hall anywhere near pick No. 221. The Cowboys did, by 26 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. That Stribling pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.

So much rides on Arvell Reese that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the 12th overall pick they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
They paid sticker price for Sonny Styles in the 33rd pick, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick57 Rnd2 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
They paid a round early for Emmanuel McNeil-Warren in pick No. 57, more than the board wanted. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick89 Rnd3 Daylen Everette
No drama and no debate, Daylen Everette went about where he belonged in slot 89. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick91 Rnd3 Monroe Freeling
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Monroe Freeling well ahead of where he belonged. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
A reach on Domani Jackson in pick 126; the board had better options right there. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick150 Rnd5 Red Murdock
Red Murdock in pick 150 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick215 Rnd6 De'Zhaun Stribling
A slide stopped in pick No. 215, with De'Zhaun Stribling worth more than the price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jordan Hall
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jordan Hall. The roster fit checks out.
Pick225 Rnd7 PJ Williams
By-the-book stuff, PJ Williams at slot 225 squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
