Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys kept it disciplined and banked a B.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Zion Logue at slot 242 is 26 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In pick 24 they get a potential shutdown corner, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
They paid sticker price for Chris Braswell in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick87 Rnd3 Ricky Pearsall
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Ricky Pearsall in pick No. 87, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick125 Rnd4 Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight at Round 4, Pick 25 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick173 Rnd5 Nathan Thomas
Nathan Thomas at the 173rd pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick213 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
A clean, defensible pick in the 213th overall pick with a little surplus value in Rasheen Ali. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick242 Rnd7 Zion Logue
This one needs a full-page explanation: Zion Logue in No. 242, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
