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

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how TreVeyon Henderson got past him. The Cowboys do not have to explain a thing at slot 150. No fireworks, but a solid B+.

Griffith has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The phones were where this weekend was really won. Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the Round 1 slot they get a lead back with juice, and a steal at that.
Pick55 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
The board fumbled Jalon Walker all the way to pick No. 55, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
They robbed the room for Jihaad Campbell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick86 Rnd3 Savion Williams
They liked Savion Williams enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 86. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick150 Rnd5 TreVeyon Henderson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, TreVeyon Henderson in pick 150, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick170 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
Taking Lathan Ransom in the 170th pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick172 Rnd5 Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. in No. 172 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick174 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at Round 5, Pick 35 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick190 Rnd6 Luke Kandra
Circle this one: Luke Kandra at pick 190 is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
No edge and no loss on Hayden Conner in the Round 6 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick249 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Thor Griffith well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
