Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA-
The Cowboys lost the trade table, and the D tells the story.

The Cowboys torched the value chart for Cooper Mays, taking him 73 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Thornton Jr.. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick No. 7 they get a bell-cow for the offense. A real need, handled.
Pick17 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the 17th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at the 38th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick44 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in No. 44 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 James Pearce Jr.
A edge rusher of that caliber at Round 2, Pick 17 is the definition of value, full stop. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe slid further than he should have, and slot 69 is lovely value for the quarterback. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick77 Rnd3 Shemar Stewart
A big swing on Shemar Stewart at the Round 3 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick113 Rnd4 Theo Wease Jr.
They talked themselves into Theo Wease Jr. at pick No. 113, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jason Marshall Jr.
Jason Marshall Jr. in the 116th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick151 Rnd5 Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers at pick 151 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick169 Rnd5 Cooper Mays
They left a pile of value on the table to take Cooper Mays this early at Round 5, Pick 31. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick170 Rnd5 Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders at No. 170 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick172 Rnd5 Cashius Howell
A conviction pick on Cashius Howell at slot 172 that the board grades a round light. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick188 Rnd6 Henry Parrish Jr.
Henry Parrish Jr. at the 188th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick226 Rnd7 Alfred Collins
Nothing to complain about; Alfred Collins went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick232 Rnd7 Zane Durant
They reached a country mile for Zane Durant at slot 232, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick248 Rnd7 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick No. 248, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
