Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureA+
The Cowboys bled value on every deal, hence the D.

Nobody else had Donovan Smith anywhere near Round 4, Pick 6. The Cowboys did, by 99 spots, and that gap is the whole story. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. Getting Henderson where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

Spending an early pick on edge rusher with tight end open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
Abdul Carter in slot 8 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick10 Rnd1 Mason Graham
A tidy little value on Mason Graham in No. 10, a step better than break-even. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick14 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick 14 they get a workhorse for the backfield, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They let Jalon Walker come to them and pounced at the Round 2 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick38 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A safety of that caliber at pick No. 38 is the definition of value, full stop. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick47 Rnd2 Isaiah Bond
Value with a capital V on Isaiah Bond in the 47th overall pick, a genuine coup. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick68 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman at slot 68 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick88 Rnd3 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 88 on Antwaun Powell-Ryland with tight end unsolved.
Pick89 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
A reach on Ajani Cornelius in the 89th overall pick; the board had better options right there. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick104 Rnd4 Daylen Everette
Daylen Everette at the 104th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick106 Rnd4 Shemar Turner
They reached into another round for Shemar Turner, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick107 Rnd4 Donovan Smith
Donovan Smith in pick 107 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick110 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
Steal is underselling it; TreVeyon Henderson at pick No. 110 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick134 Rnd4 Nicholas Singleton
They robbed the room for Nicholas Singleton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jaeden Roberts
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jaeden Roberts in pick 139, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick140 Rnd5 Nazir Stackhouse
They reached a country mile for Nazir Stackhouse at the 140th pick, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
