Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C+ for the Cowboys.

The Cowboys put a flag in the ground for Gabe Hall, 33 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Clark. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a building block for the line, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Mekhi Wingo
A premium they did not need to pay, Mekhi Wingo a notch or two before his time. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick87 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Cooper Beebe at pick 87 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick124 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at slot 124 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
Pick174 Rnd5 Gabe Hall
A big swing on Gabe Hall at pick No. 174, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
Pick212 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
They read the board right and De'Corian Clark was the payoff at the 212th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick245 Rnd7 Carson Steele
Carson Steele at the Round 7 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
