Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall
B+
ValueB
NeedB
TradesA+
FutureB+
The Cowboys won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+. When the story of this class is written, it opens with Jahvaree Ritzie at pick No. 223, a reach of 49 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.
Getting Emmanwori where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker. Jonathan Taylor gives the group a proven body among the projects.
Good work on the whole, with linebacker the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
Nothing to complain about; Tetairoa McMillan went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick50
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori in pick 50 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick81
Rnd3
Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge is a better player than the Round 3 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick92
Rnd3
Xavier Restrepo
Xavier Restrepo in Round 3, Pick 28 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick119
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at slot 119 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick149
Rnd5
Dorian Strong
A cornerback of that caliber at pick No. 149 is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick151
Rnd5
Malachi Moore
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Malachi Moore at pick No. 151. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick171
Rnd5
Quincy Riley
No drama and no debate, Quincy Riley went about where he belonged in No. 171. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick174
Rnd5
Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson in Round 5, Pick 36 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick204
Rnd6
Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed at the Round 6 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick211
Rnd6
CJ West
CJ West at pick 211 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The roster fit checks out.
Pick223
Rnd7
Jahvaree Ritzie
Jahvaree Ritzie at the 223rd pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick239
Rnd7
Brady Cook
A big swing on Brady Cook at the 239th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick247
Rnd7
Shilo Sanders
They left a pile of value on the table to take Shilo Sanders this early at slot 247. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
