Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueC NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Cowboys turned the phones into found money: B.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Cowboys did exactly that with Tanor Bortolini in the 125th pick. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Liufau. On the needs board they went 7 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Edgerrin Cooper
In the 32nd overall pick they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
They paid sticker price for Kingsley Suamataia in pick No. 57, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick67 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson at the Round 3 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in No. 87 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick125 Rnd4 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini at pick 125 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick152 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nice patience on Nehemiah Pritchett, who had no business lasting to the 152nd pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick174 Rnd5 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau slipping to the 174th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Garret Greenfield. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick233 Rnd7 Evan Anderson
Value said wait; Evan Anderson in the Round 7 slot says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick244 Rnd7 Josiah Ezirim
A real head-scratcher, Josiah Ezirim in slot 244 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick246 Rnd7 Austin Reed
They talked themselves into Austin Reed at the 246th pick, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
