Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Cowboys: B.

The Jalen Travis selection is the head-turner. The Cowboys reached 85 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker. That is an interior defensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick 12 they get a featured back, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Kenneth Grant in Round 2, Pick 12, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond in the 76th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick149 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
They liked Tommi Hill enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 149. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick171 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 171st pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jaydon Blue
No drama and no debate, Jaydon Blue went about where he belonged in pick No. 174. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick204 Rnd6 Jalen Travis
Jalen Travis at pick No. 204 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick211 Rnd6 Vernon Broughton
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Vernon Broughton reach Round 6, Pick 35 and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick239 Rnd7 Craig Woodson
They will replay Craig Woodson at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick247 Rnd7 John Williams
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for John Williams. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
