Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Daniels in the fold, and a D- for the Cowboys.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Omar Speights; the Cowboys did not wait, grabbing him 85 spots ahead at slot 256. The math is unkind, and the D- follows.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. The whole projection now runs through Jayden Daniels; hit there and everything else looks smarter. They banked enough surplus on Lovett to cover a lot of smaller sins.

They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In pick No. 4 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick5 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the 5th pick they get their quarterback of the future. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick24 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In pick 24 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27 Rnd1 T'Vondre Sweat
In the Round 1 slot they get a run-stuffing presence up front, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jonathon Brooks in No. 56. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick66 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Junior Colson is a better player than the 66th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Johnny Wilson well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick105 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer at Round 4, Pick 5 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett in pick 174 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick216 Rnd6 Solomon Byrd
They reached into another round for Solomon Byrd, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick233 Rnd7 Fabien Lovett
The board fumbled Fabien Lovett all the way to the 233rd overall pick, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick244 Rnd7 Kendall Milton
Steal is underselling it; Kendall Milton at the Round 7 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick256 Rnd7 Omar Speights
A real head-scratcher, Omar Speights in slot 256 is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
