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

Somebody in pick 211 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Cowboys sat still while Jack Kiser, the No. 181 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it. They are betting Conner proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kenneth Grant at slot 33. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick44 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau at Round 2, Pick 12 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick67 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
A slide stopped in the 67th pick, with TreVeyon Henderson worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick76 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at pick No. 76 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick149 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
They read the board right and Malachi Moore was the payoff at the 149th overall pick. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick171 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
They paid a round early for Vernon Broughton in No. 171, more than the board wanted. It fills a real need, too.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jarquez Hunter
Jarquez Hunter in the Round 5 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick204 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing KeAndre Lambert-Smith in pick 204. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
Circle this one: Jack Kiser at slot 211 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick239 Rnd7 R.J. Mickens
Steal is underselling it; R.J. Mickens at No. 239 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick247 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner at pick No. 247 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
