Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Cowboys finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a D.

The Cowboys torched the value chart for Mason Fairchild, taking him 55 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. It grades a D, and the process earned it.

So much rides on Bo Nix that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In the Round 1 slot they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. More want than need.
Pick14 Rnd1 JC Latham
In the 14th overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick25 Rnd1 Bo Nix
In pick 25 they get a passer to set the clock by. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in No. 44 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick56 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at pick No. 56 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick71 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
No edge and no loss on Cooper Beebe in slot 71; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick75 Rnd3 Tyler Davis
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Davis in the 75th pick, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick76 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Fair-plus on Trey Benson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick87 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
They paid a round early for Tykee Smith in No. 87, more than the board wanted. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick88 Rnd3 DJ James
A swing that ignored the value entirely, DJ James well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick110 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
They took Ainias Smith at par in slot 110, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick124 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
The board had cheaper options than Cedric Gray at Round 4, Pick 24, and it noticed. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick136 Rnd4 Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent at pick No. 136 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick146 Rnd5 Justin Rogers
A reach for Justin Rogers in the 146th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick149 Rnd5 Austin Booker
They paid up for Austin Booker at pick No. 149 when waiting would have done the job. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick174 Rnd5 Christian Jones
A wild overpay on Christian Jones in the 174th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
Jase McClellan in the 212th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick245 Rnd7 Mason Fairchild
Mason Fairchild in slot 245 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
