Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA-
The Cowboys cashed the board's mistake on Kiser: A-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Jack Kiser had no business being available in No. 247, and the Cowboys did the only sane thing and turned in the card. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Add it up and this is about as clean as a draft weekend gets.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In pick 14 they get a true top target. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tyleik Williams. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick117 Rnd4 Devin Neal
They robbed the room for Devin Neal here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick149 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at No. 149 is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick151 Rnd5 Kyle McCord
Kyle McCord at the 151st overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick170 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt in pick No. 170 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick171 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
A clean, defensible pick in slot 171 with a little surplus value in Ajani Cornelius. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick174 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
No drama and no debate, JJ Pegues went about where he belonged in Round 5, Pick 36. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick188 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Somehow Jack Nelson was still sitting there in the 188th pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick189 Rnd6 Upton Stout
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Upton Stout in slot 189. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick211 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith at the Round 6 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Taking Jack Kiser in the 247th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
