Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA- FutureB-
The Cowboys let Stout fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Upton Stout, the No. 178 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 249. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

They are betting Jackson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. Leaving offensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the offensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In slot 12 they get a press-man option on the boundary. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick45 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
Fair-plus on Tyleik Williams, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick76 Rnd3 Dylan Sampson
Dylan Sampson slid further than he should have, and the Round 3 slot is lovely value for the running back. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick116 Rnd4 Cody Simon
A premium they did not need to pay, Cody Simon a notch or two before his time. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick150 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman at pick 150 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick152 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
A tidy little value on Raheim Sanders in Round 5, Pick 13, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick170 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 170th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick172 Rnd5 Cam Jackson
They reached into another round for Cam Jackson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick174 Rnd5 Antwane Wells Jr.
Antwane Wells Jr. in pick 174 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick190 Rnd6 Nohl Williams
Value with a capital V on Nohl Williams in the Round 6 slot, a genuine coup. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick211 Rnd6 DJ Giddens
They will replay DJ Giddens at Round 6, Pick 33 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick249 Rnd7 Upton Stout
Upton Stout in the 249th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
