Draft Grade — Cowboys

The board sent warnings the Cowboys ignored, and it shows: D. The rest of the league had time to spare on Seth McGowan; the Cowboys did not wait, grabbing him 169 spots ahead at pick 4.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Howell. For all the activity, offensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain.
It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.
Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Seth McGowan
In the 4th overall pick they get a centerpiece for the ground game, a steep price for the projection.
Pick20
Rnd1
Zachariah Branch
A wild overpay on Zachariah Branch in Round 1, Pick 20, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick92
Rnd3
Kamari Ramsey
Circle this one: Kamari Ramsey at No. 92 is a fall that decides a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick112
Rnd4
Malachi Lawrence
Malachi Lawrence in the Round 4 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick177
Rnd5
Cashius Howell
Cashius Howell at pick No. 177 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick250
Rnd7
Jalon Kilgore
You do not let a cornerback like Jalon Kilgore reach the 250th pick and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
