Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys let Wallace fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The board owed the Cowboys one, and it paid up: Caedan Wallace, the No. 212 name on the board, sitting there at pick 233 like a gift left on the doorstep. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The cost of the Jacobs reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In No. 24 they get a long-term starter on the line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Fair-plus on Payton Wilson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick87 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving at pick 87 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick128 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
They did well to land Johnny Wilson in the Round 4 slot, just ahead of his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Christian Jones
They paid sticker price for Christian Jones in pick No. 134, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick174 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
Good price on Kamal Hadden in the 174th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick189 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at slot 189 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd6 Ryan Flournoy
A slide stopped in Round 6, Pick 41, with Ryan Flournoy worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick233 Rnd7 Caedan Wallace
A offensive lineman of that caliber at No. 233 is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick244 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio in the 244th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
