Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys won the night they stopped Pearl from sliding. Grade: B.

When a board-topper like Julian Pearl slides to pick 233, you do not overthink it, and the Cowboys did not.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback. Vidal has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick No. 24 they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in No. 56 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
A straight-up fair deal on Bucky Irving at pick 87, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick174 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee at Round 6, Pick 41 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick233 Rnd7 Julian Pearl
Julian Pearl at the 233rd overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick244 Rnd7 Kimani Vidal
A reach on Kimani Vidal in the 244th pick; the board had better options right there. The roster fit checks out.
