Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA+
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Cowboys to a D.

The war room fell hard for Anthony Belton, and it showed at slot 168: 89 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. Put together, it is a D.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Landing Booker that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The Cowboys paired the rookies with proven help, Myles Garrett leading the way.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
Nothing to complain about; Ashton Jeanty went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick12 Rnd1 Mason Graham
Mason Graham at the 12th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick24 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In No. 24 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori in slot 33 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick39 Rnd2 Isaiah Bond
Value with a capital V on Isaiah Bond in Round 2, Pick 7, a genuine coup. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick64 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in the 64th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick70 Rnd3 Tyler Booker
Somehow Tyler Booker was still sitting there in the 70th pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jordan Burch
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jordan Burch. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick93 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman at pick No. 93 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick106 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Emery Jones Jr. in the 106th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick131 Rnd4 Maxwell Hairston
Circle this one: Maxwell Hairston at Round 4, Pick 30 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick134 Rnd4 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner at pick 134 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
Pick148 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
No drama and no debate, Raheim Sanders went about where he belonged in slot 148. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick168 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
They reached into another round for Anthony Belton, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick170 Rnd5 Nazir Stackhouse
They talked themselves into Nazir Stackhouse at the 170th overall pick, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick171 Rnd5 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jamon Dumas-Johnson in No. 171, miles early. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick195 Rnd6 Seth McLaughlin
They paid a round early for Seth McLaughlin in slot 195, more than the board wanted. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick248 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
They reached a country mile for Thor Griffith at pick No. 248, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
