Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureA
The Cowboys bled value on every deal, hence the D.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Zion Logue, 56 picks early at the 230th overall pick. It grades a D, and the process earned it.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

However the rest shakes out, Alt at that price is a win they earned.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In slot 11 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick23 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 23 they get a building block for the line, reach and all. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick24 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick59 Rnd2 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in pick No. 59 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick86 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
Value said wait; Braelon Allen in pick 86 says they were not listening. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Michael Pratt
They talked themselves into Michael Pratt at No. 87, and the board did not agree. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick108 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
They liked Johnny Wilson enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 108. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick132 Rnd4 James Williams
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and James Williams at the 132nd overall pick is the proof. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick157 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jordan Jefferson well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick159 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt at pick 159 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick174 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
No drama and no debate, Ty'Ron Hopper went about where he belonged in pick No. 174. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
Circle this one: Jase McClellan at Round 6, Pick 41 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick230 Rnd7 Zion Logue
A wild overpay on Zion Logue in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick233 Rnd7 Ryan Watts
A real head-scratcher, Ryan Watts in the 233rd pick is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick244 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones at the 244th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
