Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the Round 3 slot: the Cowboys steal Kinchens and grade out a B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Kamren Kinchens, pick 87, roughly 53 picks past where he belonged.

The Jones pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In slot 24 they get a double-digit-sack hope, outstanding value to boot. More want than need.
Pick56 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They took T'Vondre Sweat at par in No. 56, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
Taking Kamren Kinchens in the 87th pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick124 Rnd4 Tyrice Knight
Nice patience on Tyrice Knight, who had no business lasting to the Round 4 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick174 Rnd5 Christian Jones
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Christian Jones. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick212 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
A big swing on Trevor Keegan at pick No. 212, well ahead of any board in the building. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick245 Rnd7 Myles Jones
Somehow Myles Jones was still sitting there in the 245th overall pick, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
