Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB NeedC+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Cowboys: B-.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Cowboys left wide receiver untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul.

Knight Jr. falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with linebacker the one that mattered most.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
James Pearce Jr. in pick 12 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick44 Rnd2 T.J. Sanders
They took T.J. Sanders at par in No. 44, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick76 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. is a better player than the 76th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
