Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Cowboys.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Cowboys spent pick 211 on Collin Oliver, a name most had 80 spots down the list.

However the rest shakes out, Etienne at that price is a win they earned. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In the 12th overall pick they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
They reached into another round for Tate Ratledge, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
The board fumbled Kaleb Johnson all the way to pick 76, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jordan Phillips
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Jordan Phillips reach the Round 5 slot and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick171 Rnd5 Tyler Batty
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tyler Batty this early at slot 171. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick174 Rnd5 Ahmed Hassanein
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ahmed Hassanein well ahead of where he belonged. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick204 Rnd6 Trevor Etienne
Trevor Etienne in Round 6, Pick 28 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick211 Rnd6 Collin Oliver
This one needs a full-page explanation: Collin Oliver in the Round 6 slot, miles early. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
