Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
The Cowboys checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Cowboys shredded theirs for Nathan Thomas. He came off 31 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

On value alone, Carson makes the weekend a net positive. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

The trade work was a quiet net positive.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Graham Barton
Graham Barton at No. 27 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick56 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
No drama and no debate, Edgerrin Cooper went about where he belonged in the 56th pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87 Rnd3 Audric Estime
Audric Estime at slot 87 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick90 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
A cornerback of that caliber at pick 90 is the definition of value, full stop. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick124 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Justin Eboigbe. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick140 Rnd5 Nathan Thomas
Nathan Thomas at the 140th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick174 Rnd5 De'Corian Clark
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for De'Corian Clark. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick188 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee in slot 188 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jontrey Hunter
No edge and no loss on Jontrey Hunter in pick No. 212; it is a wash and a sensible one. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick245 Rnd7 Demani Richardson
Demani Richardson in Round 7, Pick 25 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
