Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedC+ TradesF FutureB
The phones sank the Cowboys this weekend: D-.

There is reaching, and then there is Markis Deal at pick 251. The Cowboys jumped the board by 100 and dared it to prove them wrong. The process wobbled, and the D- is where it lands.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. With tight end unsolved, spending premium capital on edge rusher is the choice that costs them. The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

On value alone, Allar makes the weekend a net positive.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and tight end is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
Caleb Downs at the Round 1 slot is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick31 Rnd1 Caleb Banks
In slot 31 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. More want than need.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jake Golday
A want over a need in No. 56: Jake Golday adds an edge rusher while tight end keeps waiting.
Pick63 Rnd2 Zion Young
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Zion Young at edge rusher with tight end open.
Pick74 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Zakee Wheatley adds a safety and leaves tight end untouched.
Pick88 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
A straight-up fair deal on Nicholas Singleton at pick 88, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick109 Rnd4 Charles Jagusah
They left a pile of value on the table to take Charles Jagusah this early at the Round 4 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick112 Rnd4 Tacario Davis
They paid up for Tacario Davis at the 112th pick when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick150 Rnd5 Chase Roberts
No edge and no loss on Chase Roberts in Round 5, Pick 12; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick177 Rnd5 Princewill Umanmielen
Princewill Umanmielen at pick No. 177 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick181 Rnd5 Drew Allar
Taking Drew Allar in pick 181 is close to grand larceny; a quarterback that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick221 Rnd7 Robert Spears-Jennings
A wild overpay on Robert Spears-Jennings in the 221st overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick225 Rnd7 Drayk Bowen
Drayk Bowen at slot 225 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick251 Rnd7 Markis Deal
Markis Deal at No. 251 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
