Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Cowboys, and a B- to prove it.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Jacob Rodriguez; the Cowboys did not wait, grabbing him 35 spots ahead at the Round 4 slot. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Malik Muhammad
In the 9th overall pick they get a ballhawk on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Iapani Laloulu
A big swing on Iapani Laloulu at pick No. 41, well ahead of any board in the building. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jacob Rodriguez
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jacob Rodriguez in No. 109, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick148 Rnd5 Nic Anderson
A quiet steal in Round 5, Pick 10: Nic Anderson for less than the market said. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick177 Rnd6 Cameron Calhoun
A slide stopped in slot 177, with Cameron Calhoun worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick214 Rnd6 Lawson Luckie
Lawson Luckie at pick 214 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
