DREDD DRAFTING FOR THECowboys
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall
B-
ValueB-
NeedB-
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Cowboys checked most of the boxes and earned a B-. The Cowboys spent real capital to be 59 picks early on Richard Jibunor, and the board is going to hold them to it. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped offensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
JT Tuimoloau
They took JT Tuimoloau at par in Round 1, Pick 30, which is nothing to complain about. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick62
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
The board had Xavier Worthy higher than pick 62, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick93
Rnd3
Audric Estime
They paid a round early for Audric Estime in the 93rd pick, more than the board wanted. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick130
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine at the 130th overall pick is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick174
Rnd5
Steve Linton
They jumped the gun on Steve Linton, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick212
Rnd6
Dwight McGlothern
A conviction pick on Dwight McGlothern at No. 212 that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick251
Rnd7
Richard Jibunor
Richard Jibunor at the 251st pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
