Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

Some picks age like wine; Malachi Lawrence at slot 63 will need to, sitting 84 spots clear of his grade.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Getting Nwokobia where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In pick 12 they get a sticky cover corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick31 Rnd1 CJ Allen
In the Round 1 slot they get a green-dot type in the middle at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 Malachi Lawrence
Malachi Lawrence at No. 63 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick112 Rnd4 Ted Hurst
A big swing on Ted Hurst at Round 4, Pick 12, well ahead of any board in the building. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick152 Rnd5 Kage Casey
Nothing to complain about; Kage Casey went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick177 Rnd5 VJ Payne
VJ Payne at pick No. 177 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick180 Rnd5 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
Fair-plus on Kaleb Elarms-Orr, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick221 Rnd7 John Michael Gyllenborg
They left a pile of value on the table to take John Michael Gyllenborg this early at No. 221. It fills a real need, too.
Pick225 Rnd7 Isaiah Nwokobia
A tidy bit of business in the Round 7 slot, where Isaiah Nwokobia graded well above the range. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
