Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA FutureA
Good, not great, for the Cowboys: B+.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Cowboys started one anyway for Tyler Batty, 44 picks ahead of schedule. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up. However the rest shakes out, Hancock at that price is a win they earned.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In the Round 1 slot they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
A slide stopped in No. 44, with Omarion Hampton worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jalen Royals at Round 3, Pick 12 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick149 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce at slot 149 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick174 Rnd5 CJ West
CJ West at pick No. 174 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick204 Rnd6 Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty at the 204th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick211 Rnd6 Isaac TeSlaa
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Isaac TeSlaa. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick217 Rnd7 Shemar James
Shemar James at Round 7, Pick 1 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
A tidy bit of business in the Round 7 slot, where Jordan Hancock graded well above the range. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick247 Rnd7 Nick Martin
This one needs a full-page explanation: Nick Martin in pick No. 247, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
