Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the Round 4 slot: the Cowboys steal Irving and grade out a B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Bucky Irving got past him. The Cowboys do not have to explain a thing at the 124th pick. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Every board in the league had Zinter lower, and that gap is the story.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In No. 24 they get a blindside protector. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at the Round 2 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
They jumped the gun on Zak Zinter, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick124 Rnd4 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving in slot 124 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
They took Jaylan Ford at par in the 174th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick212 Rnd6 Myles Jones
Myles Jones at the 212th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
Joshua Cephus in pick No. 245 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
