Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys let Tracy Jr. fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Tyrone Tracy Jr., No. 230, roughly 80 picks past where he belonged.

Logue has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get protection for the quarterback. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Steal is underselling it; Graham Barton at pick 56 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick87 Rnd3 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Kool-Aid McKinstry in No. 87 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
Value said wait; Jaylan Ford in the Round 5 slot says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick230 Rnd7 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
They robbed the room for Tyrone Tracy Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick232 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at slot 232 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick233 Rnd7 Zion Logue
Zion Logue in the 233rd overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick244 Rnd7 Kendall Milton
You do not let a running back like Kendall Milton reach the 244th pick and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
