Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Cowboys and Thrash: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Jamari Thrash got past him. The Cowboys do not have to explain a thing at the 212th pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They will need Mahogany to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick59 Rnd2 Christian Mahogany
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Christian Mahogany well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick62 Rnd2 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in No. 62 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Adisa Isaac
The board had cheaper options than Adisa Isaac at pick 89, and it noticed. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick96 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at pick No. 96 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick119 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Value with a capital V on Cam Hart in Round 4, Pick 19, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick126 Rnd4 Payton Wilson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Payton Wilson this early at the 126th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick165 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at the Round 5 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick174 Rnd5 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at the 174th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jamari Thrash
They robbed the room for Jamari Thrash here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick247 Rnd7 Reuben Fatheree II
Reuben Fatheree II is a better player than slot 247 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
