Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Cowboys a B.

For all the boxes ticked, the Cowboys skipped the loudest one: wide receiver is exactly as bare as it was.

They will need Wingo to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The back end got a real overhaul.

Their trades came out a wash either way.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In pick 24 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick64 Rnd2 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes at the 64th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick87 Rnd3 Trey Benson
No edge and no loss on Trey Benson in slot 87; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick95 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
The board had cheaper options than Mekhi Wingo at the Round 3 slot, and it noticed. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
