Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys won the night they stopped Thornton Jr. from sliding. Grade: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Dont'e Thornton Jr. had no business being available in pick 211, and the Cowboys did the only sane thing and turned in the card. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jahdae Barron
Steal is underselling it; Jahdae Barron at slot 44 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick76 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger slid further than he should have, and the 76th pick is lovely value for the linebacker. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick149 Rnd5 Dillon Gabriel
Dillon Gabriel at No. 149 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick171 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
They robbed the room for Bhayshul Tuten here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
They paid sticker price for Jack Nelson in the Round 5 slot, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick204 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
Nazir Stackhouse in the 204th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick211 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick No. 211 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick239 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
Phil Mafah at slot 239 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick247 Rnd7 Dante Trader Jr.
They barely believed it either: Dante Trader Jr. still on the board at Round 7, Pick 31. A minor need, but a need all the same.
