Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall A-
ValueA+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
Quarterback settled, Mendoza in the fold, and a A- for the Cowboys.

You could see the war room lean forward. Jermod McCoy at pick 225 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Very little went wrong, and the A- is earned.

The whole projection now runs through Fernando Mendoza; hit there and everything else looks smarter. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In the end it comes back to Fernando Mendoza, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
They read the board right and Fernando Mendoza was the payoff at pick No. 18. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick20 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a bell-cow for the offense at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Spencer Fano
Taking Spencer Fano in the Round 2 slot is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick112 Rnd4 David Bailey
They robbed the room for David Bailey here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick118 Rnd4 Sonny Styles
You do not let a linebacker like Sonny Styles reach the 118th overall pick and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick152 Rnd5 Kenyon Sadiq
Kenyon Sadiq in Round 5, Pick 12 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick177 Rnd5 Jordyn Tyson
Circle this one: Jordyn Tyson at the 177th pick is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick180 Rnd5 Colton Hood
They barely believed it either: Colton Hood still on the board at pick 180. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick221 Rnd7 Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse at slot 221 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jermod McCoy
Jermod McCoy in No. 225 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
