Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA
A franchise passer in Ewers headlines a D weekend for the Cowboys.

The phones were a trap the Cowboys kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. It grades a D, and the process earned it.

Quinn Ewers is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They are betting Cypress II proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The Gray pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Quinn Ewers
In the Round 1 slot they get the face of the franchise. A real need, handled.
Pick30 Rnd1 Isaiah Bond
In No. 30 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II is a better player than the 40th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick62 Rnd2 Dani Dennis-Sutton
Nice patience on Dani Dennis-Sutton, who had no business lasting to pick 62. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick68 Rnd3 Sebastian Castro
A quiet steal in Round 3, Pick 4: Sebastian Castro for less than the market said. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick94 Rnd3 Trevor Etienne
They paid sticker price for Trevor Etienne in the 94th pick, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick126 Rnd4 Joshua Gray
You do not let an offensive lineman like Joshua Gray reach pick No. 126 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick158 Rnd5 Fentrell Cypress II
Fentrell Cypress II at slot 158 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick190 Rnd6 Khordae Sydnor
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Khordae Sydnor. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick222 Rnd7 Ja'Corey Brooks
Fair-plus on Ja'Corey Brooks, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
