Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB
The Cowboys cashed the board's mistake on Kandra: D.

The Cowboys bet big and early on Collin Oliver, 74 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

Kandra falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In pick 6 they get a lockdown presence outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick11 Rnd1 Tre Harris
In pick No. 11 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick37 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Taking Omarion Hampton in Round 2, Pick 5 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick41 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. at the 41st pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick42 Rnd2 Carson Beck
Value said wait; Carson Beck in slot 42 says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick75 Rnd3 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks at Round 3, Pick 11 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick104 Rnd4 Blake Miller
Blake Miller at No. 104 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick149 Rnd5 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at pick 149 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick169 Rnd5 Deontae Lawson
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Deontae Lawson in the 169th overall pick, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick170 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra in pick No. 170 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick171 Rnd5 Parker Brailsford
Circle this one: Parker Brailsford at the Round 5 slot is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick186 Rnd6 Le'Veon Moss
They will replay Le'Veon Moss at the 186th pick for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick209 Rnd6 Collin Oliver
This one needs a full-page explanation: Collin Oliver in the Round 6 slot, miles early. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
