Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB
Larceny in No. 239 lands the Cowboys a B, Mickens and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. R.J. Mickens tumbling to the Cowboys in the Round 7 slot is a gift they did not have to think twice about. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

They will need Sanders to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In the Round 1 slot they get a weapon on the perimeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
A quiet steal in the 44th pick: Omarion Hampton for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
By-the-book stuff, Isaiah Bond at pick 76 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick119 Rnd4 Riley Leonard
Somehow Riley Leonard was still sitting there in No. 119, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick149 Rnd5 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. in pick No. 149 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick171 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
They will replay Bhayshul Tuten at Round 5, Pick 33 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick174 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin is a better player than slot 174 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick193 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at the 193rd overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick204 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
You do not let a linebacker like Jack Kiser reach the 204th pick and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick211 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at pick No. 211 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick239 Rnd7 R.J. Mickens
A safety of that caliber at slot 239 is the definition of value, full stop. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick247 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
Value said wait; Shilo Sanders in pick 247 says they were not listening. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
