Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall A-
ValueA NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Cowboys let Wilson fall into their laps, and walked away with a A-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Jared Wilson got past him. The Cowboys do not have to explain a thing at slot 211.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They are betting West proves the room right and everyone else wrong. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Bottom line, with Luther Burden III leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Luther Burden III at pick 24. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in No. 45 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick51 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They robbed the room for Nick Emmanwori here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jihaad Campbell in the Round 3 slot, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick116 Rnd4 Quinshon Judkins
You do not let a running back like Quinshon Judkins reach slot 116 and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick150 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at the 150th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick152 Rnd5 TreVeyon Henderson
Steal is underselling it; TreVeyon Henderson at Round 5, Pick 13 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick170 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
Somehow Kevin Winston Jr. was still sitting there in pick No. 170, and they pounced on premier safety value. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick172 Rnd5 Terrance Ferguson
Terrance Ferguson at Round 5, Pick 33 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick174 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the 174th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick190 Rnd6 CJ West
This one needs a full-page explanation: CJ West in the 190th pick, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jared Wilson
They will replay Jared Wilson at pick No. 211 for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jay Higgins
They barely believed it either: Jay Higgins still on the board at pick 234. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick235 Rnd7 RJ Harvey
Circle this one: RJ Harvey at slot 235 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick249 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
A running back of that caliber at No. 249 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
