Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cowboys: B-.

The Cowboys treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 178 on Roderick Kearney a full 64 spots early.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In No. 15 they get an island corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick28 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick115 Rnd4 Derrick Moore
Derrick Moore at the 115th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick155 Rnd5 Jacob Rodriguez
A reach on Jacob Rodriguez in pick No. 155; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick178 Rnd5 Roderick Kearney
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Roderick Kearney well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick179 Rnd5 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
Jermaine Mathews Jr. in the 179th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd7 Alex Birchmeier
Value said wait; Alex Birchmeier in pick No. 216 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick229 Rnd7 Brandon Inniss
Brandon Inniss in pick 229 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
