Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cowboys: B-.

The Cowboys clearly saw something nobody else did in Evan Anderson, taking him 122 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Vidal.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
In the 24th pick they get a true top target. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
A reach on Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in pick No. 56; the board had better options right there. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick87 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
They left a pile of value on the table to take Braelon Allen this early at pick 87. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick124 Rnd4 Isaiah Adams
Isaiah Adams in the 124th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick186 Rnd6 Evan Anderson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Evan Anderson well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick212 Rnd6 Kimani Vidal
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kimani Vidal at the Round 6 slot is the proof. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick232 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
A big swing on Nathaniel Watson at pick 232, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick245 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Sheridan Jones in the Round 7 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
