Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Cowboys.

The Cowboys bet big and early on Nazir Stackhouse, 58 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

Etienne falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a featured back at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in the Round 2 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76 Rnd3 Barrett Carter
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Barrett Carter. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick149 Rnd5 Nazir Stackhouse
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Nazir Stackhouse well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick171 Rnd5 Trevor Etienne
They will replay Trevor Etienne at No. 171 for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick174 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
Tommi Hill at the 174th pick is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick204 Rnd6 Antwane Wells Jr.
Value with a capital V on Antwane Wells Jr. in Round 6, Pick 28, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
They paid sticker price for Jordan Hancock in the 211th overall pick, and that is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick239 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
They jumped the gun on Tonka Hemingway, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick247 Rnd7 Logan Parr
Logan Parr at No. 247 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
