Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Cowboys bled value on every deal, hence the D.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Cowboys reached some 77 spots for Logan Brown, and value like that does not grow back. The math is unkind, and the D follows.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. The Kneeland pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with tight end and interior defensive lineman still on the board. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, tight end very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
Dallas Turner at slot 14 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick40 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on T.J. Tampa. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick66 Rnd3 Edgerrin Cooper
A reasonable price with a little left over, Edgerrin Cooper in pick No. 66. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jonathon Brooks
Jonathon Brooks in the 67th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
A quiet steal in the Round 3 slot: Mike Sainristil for less than the market said. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick100 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
They bypassed pressing needs at tight end and interior defensive lineman to take Marshawn Kneeland, an edge rusher that was not the priority.
Pick104 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith in the Round 4 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick124 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer in pick No. 124 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick133 Rnd4 Joe Milton III
A big swing on Joe Milton III at No. 133, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick136 Rnd4 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at pick 136 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick212 Rnd6 Donovan Jennings
This one needs a full-page explanation: Donovan Jennings in the 212th overall pick, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick245 Rnd7 Logan Brown
They reached into another round for Logan Brown, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
