Grumpy DRAFTING FOR THECowboys

Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall
D
ValueB-
NeedB
TradesF
FutureB+
The Cowboys got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D. Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Cowboys, and the value they bled adds up to real damage.
Reaching for Harris left real value on the table behind him. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Jordan Morgan
In pick 24 they get a blindside protector. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36
Rnd2
Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson in Round 2, Pick 4 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick40
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette at No. 40 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick56
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at slot 56 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at the Round 3 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87
Rnd3
Tyler Davis
They jumped the gun on Tyler Davis, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick100
Rnd3
Audric Estime
No drama and no debate, Audric Estime went about where he belonged in pick No. 100. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick102
Rnd4
DJ James
DJ James in the 102nd pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick124
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott at Round 4, Pick 24 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick174
Rnd5
Michael Barrett
A reach on Michael Barrett in the Round 5 slot; the board had better options right there. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick181
Rnd6
Christian Jones
They paid up for Christian Jones at slot 181 when waiting would have done the job. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick212
Rnd6
Marcus Harris
Marcus Harris in pick 212 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick223
Rnd7
Jase McClellan
Fair-plus on Jase McClellan, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick245
Rnd7
Dwight McGlothern
The board had cheaper options than Dwight McGlothern at No. 245, and it noticed. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
