Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Cowboys won the night they stopped Cowing from sliding. Grade: B+.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Cowboys came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. No fireworks, but a solid B+.

Cowing falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Walker has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Edgerrin Cooper
In No. 31 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33 Rnd2 Taliese Fuaga
Taliese Fuaga at pick 33 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick84 Rnd3 Adisa Isaac
Adisa Isaac in slot 84 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick89 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
Devontez Walker at pick No. 89 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick90 Rnd3 Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards in Round 3, Pick 27 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick92 Rnd3 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at the 92nd pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick94 Rnd3 Tyler Davis
Tyler Davis in the Round 3 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick126 Rnd4 Justin Rogers
The board had cheaper options than Justin Rogers at No. 126, and it noticed. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick131 Rnd4 James Williams
A straight-up fair deal on James Williams at pick No. 131, value and slot in agreement. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick134 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
Sataoa Laumea at slot 134 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
They went early on Jack Nelson in pick 165, and the value did not follow. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jacob Cowing
Steal is underselling it; Jacob Cowing at Round 6, Pick 37 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick247 Rnd7 Tyreek Chappell
Nothing to complain about; Tyreek Chappell went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
