Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Cowboys won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B.

The Cowboys ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They are betting Sweat proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick34 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They left a pile of value on the table to take T'Vondre Sweat this early at the 34th overall pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jeremiah Trotter Jr.. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran in pick No. 87 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick92 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
They paid sticker price for Zak Zinter in pick 92, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick103 Rnd4 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving at No. 103 is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick124 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in the 124th pick is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in Round 5, Pick 38 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick212 Rnd6 Myles Jones
Myles Jones in slot 212 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick232 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
No drama and no debate, Eric Gentry went about where he belonged in slot 232. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jordan Toles
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jordan Toles in Round 7, Pick 25, miles early. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
