Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Cowboys, and a B to prove it.

There is a lot to like until you notice wide receiver is still a hole. The Cowboys never got to the one that mattered most.

The Zinter reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. On value alone, Brooks makes the weekend a net positive.

Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton in Round 1, Pick 27 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
A quiet steal in the 56th pick: Jonathon Brooks for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick87 Rnd3 Trey Benson
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Trey Benson. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick90 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
They went early on Zak Zinter in No. 90, and the value did not follow. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
