Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall

TradesB-
FutureB-
The Cowboys kept it disciplined and banked a B. You can draft well and still miss the point. The Cowboys did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to cornerback, which was the need that mattered most. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.
That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Matthew Golden
In slot 12 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44
Rnd2
Jihaad Campbell
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jihaad Campbell in the 44th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
