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

The Cowboys put a flag in the ground for Evan Anderson, 49 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

The Jones pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the Round 1 slot they get a blindside protector at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at slot 56 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick87 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
A quiet steal in the 87th overall pick: Ja'Lynn Polk for less than the market said. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick128 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at No. 128 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick134 Rnd4 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau at pick No. 134 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick160 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jordan Jefferson. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones at pick No. 174 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
They barely believed it either: Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint still on the board at slot 216. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick233 Rnd7 Evan Anderson
A big swing on Evan Anderson at the 233rd overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick244 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
They read the board right and Trevin Wallace was the payoff at Round 7, Pick 24. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
