Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB- TradesD+ FutureB-
The Cowboys robbed the room for Spears-Jennings. Final grade: C+.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Cowboys watched Robert Spears-Jennings slide 92 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

The Helm reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

So much rides on Mason Graham that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In Round 1, Pick 13 they get a wrecking ball inside. A real need, handled.
Pick35 Rnd2 Abdul Carter
They robbed the room for Abdul Carter here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick75 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
They talked themselves into Alfred Collins at pick 75, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick105 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
The board fumbled TreVeyon Henderson all the way to the Round 4 slot, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick114 Rnd4 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson in No. 114 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick149 Rnd5 Gunnar Helm
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Gunnar Helm. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick169 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
They barely believed it either: Danny Stutsman still on the board at the 169th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick170 Rnd5 Robert Spears-Jennings
Robert Spears-Jennings at pick No. 170 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick171 Rnd5 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
This one needs a full-page explanation: Ar'maj Reed-Adams in the 171st pick, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick186 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
A reach on Miles Frazier in pick No. 186; the board had better options right there. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick209 Rnd6 Kevin Winston Jr.
A tidy little value on Kevin Winston Jr. in the Round 6 slot, a step better than break-even. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
