Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueA NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys let Lacy fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Cowboys watched Kyren Lacy slide 40 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In slot 12 they get a three-down runner, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Circle this one: Jalon Walker at the 44th pick is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Deone Walker
The board had Deone Walker higher than pick 76, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. The roster fit checks out.
Pick150 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce at No. 150 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jay Higgins
They robbed the room for Jay Higgins here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick172 Rnd5 Dillon Gabriel
Steal is underselling it; Dillon Gabriel at Round 5, Pick 33 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick174 Rnd5 Kyren Lacy
Taking Kyren Lacy in pick No. 174 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
