DT
Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Cowboys to a D-.

The war room fell hard for Patrick Payton, and it showed at the Round 5 slot: 74 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. Too much went sideways, and the D- is the honest tally.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. For all the activity, offensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Reese.

They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and offensive lineman is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In the 12th pick they get a green-dot type in the middle, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick20 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In No. 20 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
They went early on Zakee Wheatley in pick 75, and the value did not follow. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick92 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
They took Nicholas Singleton at par in the 92nd overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick112 Rnd4 Will Lee III
No edge and no loss on Will Lee III in pick No. 112; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick152 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
Aaron Graves at Round 5, Pick 12 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick177 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
They talked themselves into Patrick Payton at Round 5, Pick 37, and the board did not agree. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick180 Rnd5 Ephesians Prysock
No drama and no debate, Ephesians Prysock went about where he belonged in pick No. 180. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
By-the-book stuff, Jeff Caldwell at the Round 7 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick225 Rnd7 Keyshaun Elliott
Keyshaun Elliott slipping to slot 225 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
