Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall

FutureA+
The Cowboys bet the future on McCarthy. The board says D. The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Cowboys reached some 32 spots for Ben Sinnott, and value like that does not grow back. Hard to defend, and the D reflects that.
Whatever J.J. McCarthy becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
Pick Analysis
Pick9
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27
Rnd1
J.J. McCarthy
In pick 27 they get a passer to set the clock by, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick56
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
They took T'Vondre Sweat at par in pick No. 56, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick75
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
No drama and no debate, Cooper Beebe went about where he belonged in the 75th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick87
Rnd3
Tyler Davis
Tyler Davis at No. 87 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick110
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine at the 110th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick111
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
They reached into another round for Ben Sinnott, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick124
Rnd4
MarShawn Lloyd
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on MarShawn Lloyd. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick174
Rnd5
Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford at pick 174 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick212
Rnd6
Jase McClellan
No edge and no loss on Jase McClellan in the 212th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick245
Rnd7
Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson in No. 245 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
