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

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named wide receiver, a need the Cowboys walked right past.

The Allen reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the Round 1 slot they get a blindside protector, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at pick No. 56 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick87 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at No. 87 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
