The Cowboys won the night they stopped Barron from sliding. Grade: C.

Call it larceny. Jahdae Barron sat on the board until Round 6, Pick 12, and the Cowboys did not need to be asked twice. A mixed bag that lands at C.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

If Travis Hunter and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Abdul Carter · DE-EDGE · rank 3
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a double-digit-sack hope at a price that makes it sweeter.
R1.20 · Pick 20 · Travis Hunter · CB · rank 1
In the 20th pick they get a potential shutdown corner, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.12 · Pick 44 · Ashton Jeanty · RB · rank 2
Ashton Jeanty in the Round 2 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Walter Nolen · DT · rank 17
Walter Nolen in the 76th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R3.14 · Pick 78 · Jalon Walker · LB · rank 20
Jalon Walker in No. 78 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.11 · Pick 112 · Armand Membou · OT · rank 32
The board fumbled Armand Membou all the way to slot 112, and they scooped it up. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.37 · Pick 138 · Jack Bech · WR · rank 71
They robbed the room for Jack Bech here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.38 · Pick 139 · Cam Skattebo · RB · rank 105
Cam Skattebo at pick No. 139 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
R5.31 · Pick 170 · Savion Williams · WR · rank 98
Somehow Savion Williams was still sitting there in pick 170, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R5.33 · Pick 172 · Jaxson Dart · QB · rank 58
A quarterback of that caliber at slot 172 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R5.35 · Pick 174 · Dylan Fairchild · OG · rank 94
They will replay Dylan Fairchild at the 174th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R6.12 · Pick 190 · Jahdae Barron · CB · rank 12
They barely believed it either: Jahdae Barron still on the board at the 190th overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.33 · Pick 211 · Demetrius Knight Jr. · LB · rank 61
Demetrius Knight Jr. at pick No. 211 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R7.31 · Pick 249 · Jordan James · RB · rank 124
Steal is underselling it; Jordan James at No. 249 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
