Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Cowboys robbed the room for Guyton. Final grade: C+.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Cowboys watched Tyler Guyton slide 30 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick39 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
They let Keon Coleman come to them and pounced at pick No. 39. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick56 Rnd2 Graham Barton
They did well to land Graham Barton in No. 56, just ahead of his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick70 Rnd3 Tyler Guyton
The board fumbled Tyler Guyton all the way to the 70th pick, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick79 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Johnny Wilson in the Round 3 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick87 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske at slot 87 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick96 Rnd3 Josh Newton
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Josh Newton in Round 3, Pick 33. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick114 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
The board had cheaper options than Sataoa Laumea at the 114th overall pick, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick124 Rnd4 James Williams
They jumped the gun on James Williams, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick155 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
No drama and no debate, Braelon Allen went about where he belonged in No. 155. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick174 Rnd5 Cedric Johnson
A slide stopped in Round 5, Pick 38, with Cedric Johnson worth more than the price. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
Jawhar Jordan at pick 212 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick245 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson in the 245th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
