Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Cowboys.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Cowboys took Zion Logue a full 29 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Beebe value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A conviction pick on Jackson Powers-Johnson at pick No. 36 that the board grades a round light. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick56 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
No drama and no debate, Edgerrin Cooper went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 24. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
A premium they did not need to pay, Johnny Wilson a notch or two before his time. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick87 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They let Cooper Beebe come to them and pounced at No. 87. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick102 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
The board had cheaper options than Leonard Taylor III at the Round 4 slot, and it noticed. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick124 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at pick 124 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick174 Rnd5 Josh Proctor
They paid up for Josh Proctor at pick 174 when waiting would have done the job. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick212 Rnd6 Zion Logue
Zion Logue at pick No. 212 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick245 Rnd7 Demorie Tate
A reach on Demorie Tate in the Round 7 slot; the board had better options right there. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
