Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
Larceny in slot 174 lands the Cowboys a B+, Guyton and all.

When a board-topper like Tyler Guyton slides to slot 174, you do not overthink it, and the Cowboys did not. The bottom line is a respectable B+.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The Hunter pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the 28th overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Trey Benson
By-the-book stuff, Trey Benson at pick No. 58 squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jackson Powers-Johnson. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick91 Rnd3 Michael Pratt
They paid sticker price for Michael Pratt in the 91st pick, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick126 Rnd4 Tory Horton
Tory Horton in slot 126 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick212 Rnd6 McCallan Castles
McCallan Castles at pick 212 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jontrey Hunter
Jontrey Hunter in No. 247 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
