Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedC+ TradesB- FutureB-
Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C+ for the Cowboys.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Cowboys took Kamran James a full 40 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. It nets out a thoroughly average C+.

That linebacker hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Spending an early pick on edge rusher with linebacker, quarterback and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

Landing Greathouse that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Hit on Peter Woods and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Peter Woods
In the 12th overall pick they get a premier pass rusher at fair value.
Pick20 Rnd1 Romello Height
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the 20th pick on Romello Height with linebacker, quarterback and other spots unsolved.
Pick112 Rnd4 Demond Claiborne
A reach for Demond Claiborne in the Round 4 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick150 Rnd5 Jaden Greathouse
Jaden Greathouse at slot 150 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick177 Rnd5 Kobe Baynes
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kobe Baynes at pick No. 177 is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick215 Rnd6 Dasan McCullough
Dasan McCullough in pick 215 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was not a hole anyone had circled.
Pick221 Rnd7 Dijon Johnson
They paid sticker price for Dijon Johnson in pick No. 221, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick225 Rnd7 Kamran James
Kamran James at the 225th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
