Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys cashed the board's mistake on Mayes: B.

Call it larceny. BJ Mayes sat on the board until pick 245, and the Cowboys did not need to be asked twice.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. Smith has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
Taliese Fuaga in the 24th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick56 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
A tidy bit of business in Round 2, Pick 24, where Tyler Guyton graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick87 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
They barely believed it either: Javon Bullard still on the board at slot 87. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick124 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
The board fumbled Khyree Jackson all the way to the 124th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in pick No. 174 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick212 Rnd6 Maurice Smith
Maurice Smith at pick 212 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick245 Rnd7 BJ Mayes
Taking BJ Mayes in No. 245 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
