Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesA+ FutureD
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Cowboys and Simon: B.

The board owed the Cowboys one, and it paid up: Cody Simon, the No. 135 name on the board, sitting there at pick 249 like a gift left on the doorstep.

The Thornton Jr. pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 12th overall pick they get a bell-cow for the offense at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick20 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
Nothing to complain about; Luther Burden III went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick44 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori in No. 44 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick76 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in the 76th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick138 Rnd4 Dylan Sampson
Steal is underselling it; Dylan Sampson at Round 4, Pick 37 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick139 Rnd4 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in pick 139 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick150 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dont'e Thornton Jr. this early at slot 150. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick170 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
The board fumbled Smael Mondon Jr. all the way to the Round 5 slot, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick190 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
A conviction pick on Nazir Stackhouse at No. 190 that the board grades a round light. It fills a real need, too.
Pick211 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
They will replay Cam Skattebo at the 211th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick249 Rnd7 Cody Simon
A linebacker of that caliber at the 249th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
