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

Somebody in pick No. 204 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Cowboys sat still while Ajani Cornelius, the No. 174 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

The Lindenberg reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In No. 12 they get a bell-cow for the offense at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick55 Rnd2 Tre Harris
No edge and no loss on Tre Harris in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick76 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Demetrius Knight Jr. at pick 76. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
They took Darius Alexander at par in the 91st overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa at slot 132 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick149 Rnd5 Riley Leonard
They barely believed it either: Riley Leonard still on the board at Round 5, Pick 11. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick158 Rnd5 Trevor Etienne
Trevor Etienne slid further than he should have, and pick No. 158 is lovely value for the running back. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick169 Rnd5 DJ Giddens
DJ Giddens in the 169th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick171 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
A reach for JJ Pegues in the Round 5 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick174 Rnd5 CJ West
CJ West in pick No. 174 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick204 Rnd6 Ajani Cornelius
The board fumbled Ajani Cornelius all the way to the 204th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick211 Rnd6 Alijah Huzzie
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Alijah Huzzie. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick239 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
They paid a round early for Cody Lindenberg in slot 239, more than the board wanted. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick247 Rnd7 CJ Dippre
CJ Dippre at pick 247 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It fills a real need, too.
