Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Cowboys answered their biggest question with Sanders. Grade: D.

You could see the war room lean forward. Quinshon Judkins at pick 148 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

Shedeur Sanders gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere.

The Campbell pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, cornerback very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In the 1st pick they get the face of the franchise at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the Round 1 slot they get a workhorse for the backfield at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick35 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
They read the board right and Emeka Egbuka was the payoff at Round 2, Pick 3. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Taking Jalon Walker in the 44th pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
They robbed the room for Jihaad Campbell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick148 Rnd5 Quinshon Judkins
They barely believed it either: Quinshon Judkins still on the board at No. 148. It fills a real need, too.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jake Majors
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Jake Majors in pick No. 168, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick170 Rnd5 Mason Taylor
Circle this one: Mason Taylor at slot 170 is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick171 Rnd5 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner at pick 171 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick187 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell in the 187th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick209 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
No drama and no debate, Miles Frazier went about where he belonged in pick No. 209. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick247 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
They did well to land Shilo Sanders in Round 7, Pick 31, just ahead of his grade. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
