Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Cowboys: B-.

The Cowboys clearly saw something nobody else did in Tommy Akingbesote, taking him 105 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

The Cornelius pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in Round 1, Pick 12 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick44 Rnd2 Shavon Revel Jr.
They barely believed it either: Shavon Revel Jr. still on the board at No. 44. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick76 Rnd3 Donovan Ezeiruaku
A edge rusher of that caliber at pick 76 is the definition of value, full stop. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jaydon Blue
A wild overpay on Jaydon Blue in the Round 5 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick174 Rnd5 Shemar James
This one needs a full-page explanation: Shemar James in pick No. 174, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick204 Rnd6 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius in the 204th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jay Toia
They did well to land Jay Toia in slot 211, just ahead of his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick217 Rnd7 Karene Reid
They paid sticker price for Karene Reid in pick 217, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick239 Rnd7 Tommy Akingbesote
They reached into another round for Tommy Akingbesote, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick247 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
Phil Mafah at the 247th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
