Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Cowboys clearly saw something nobody else did in Jaylon Carlies, taking him 50 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kingsley Suamataia
In pick 30 they get an anchor for the offensive line, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick69 Rnd3 Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell at the 69th overall pick is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick93 Rnd3 Audric Estime
Audric Estime at the 93rd pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick128 Rnd4 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford at slot 128 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130 Rnd4 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner at pick No. 130 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick142 Rnd5 Braden Fiske
They left a pile of value on the table to take Braden Fiske this early at the Round 5 slot. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jaylon Carlies
Jaylon Carlies at Round 5, Pick 38 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick212 Rnd6 Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster in pick 212 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick251 Rnd7 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at pick No. 251 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
