Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cowboys: B.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Cowboys took Simeon Barrow Jr. a full 49 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

Landing Henderson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
Matthew Golden in No. 12 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They will replay Jalon Walker at the 44th pick for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick76 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
The board fumbled TreVeyon Henderson all the way to Round 3, Pick 12, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick149 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
A slide stopped in the 149th overall pick, with Hollin Pierce worth more than the price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick171 Rnd5 Kalel Mullings
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kalel Mullings at slot 171 is the proof. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick174 Rnd5 Simeon Barrow Jr.
They reached into another round for Simeon Barrow Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick204 Rnd6 Cam Horsley
A real head-scratcher, Cam Horsley in the 204th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick211 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
Joshua Gray at pick 211 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick239 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
They did well to land Cam Jackson in slot 239, just ahead of his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
No drama and no debate, Jamon Dumas-Johnson went about where he belonged in the 247th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
