Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesA- FutureD
Hood should have been long gone. The Cowboys pounced, and earned a B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Colton Hood tumbling to the Cowboys in the 218th pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

The offensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 David Bailey
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a problem off the edge. More want than need.
Pick13 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
A reasonable price with a little left over, Arvell Reese in the 13th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick92 Rnd3 Mansoor Delane
You do not let a cornerback like Mansoor Delane reach No. 92 and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick112 Rnd4 Jordyn Tyson
Somehow Jordyn Tyson was still sitting there in pick No. 112, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick152 Rnd5 Jermod McCoy
They barely believed it either: Jermod McCoy still on the board at slot 152. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick177 Rnd5 Kenyon Sadiq
Kenyon Sadiq at pick 177 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick180 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
Steal is underselling it; Sonny Styles at the Round 5 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick218 Rnd7 Colton Hood
Circle this one: Colton Hood at the 218th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick219 Rnd7 Romello Height
A edge rusher of that caliber at the Round 7 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick220 Rnd7 Lee Hunter
They robbed the room for Lee Hunter here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick221 Rnd7 Bud Clark
They will replay Bud Clark at slot 221 for years; that is how good the value is. A minor itch, scratched.
