Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Cowboys.

The Cowboys bet big and early on Brandon Coleman, 28 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

That Estime pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick58 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
They let Cooper Beebe come to them and pounced at the 58th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66 Rnd3 Cooper DeJean
Cooper DeJean slid further than he should have, and slot 66 is lovely value for the cornerback. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick70 Rnd3 Adonai Mitchell
No drama and no debate, Adonai Mitchell went about where he belonged in pick No. 70. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick85 Rnd3 Graham Barton
Graham Barton in No. 85 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick89 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman at Round 3, Pick 26 is a conviction pick that outran the value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick102 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson in the 102nd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick126 Rnd4 Audric Estime
You do not let a running back like Audric Estime reach pick 126 and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick174 Rnd5 Brandon Coleman
Brandon Coleman at slot 174 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick247 Rnd7 Storm Duck
Storm Duck at No. 247 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
