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

You build a draft on nights like this. Xavier Atkins had no business being available in No. 125, and the Cowboys did the only sane thing and turned in the card. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. If Brown pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Sammy Brown
In slot 20 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, though they paid up to get him. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Boubacar Traore
They paid up for Boubacar Traore at the 44th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick125 Rnd4 Xavier Atkins
Xavier Atkins in the 125th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
