Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall F
ValueC+ NeedC+ TradesF FutureF
A weekend the Cowboys spent fighting the board, and losing. F.

The Cowboys did not so much draft Mitchell Melton as overpay for him, 137 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. About as rough as the board gets, and a F to prove it.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. Pavia falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

In short, a weekend the front office will want to forget in a hurry.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Keldric Faulk
In the Round 1 slot they get a bendy edge with upside. More want than need.
Pick16 Rnd1 Cashius Howell
Cashius Howell at No. 16 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick18 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
No drama and no debate, Mansoor Delane went about where he belonged in the 18th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick21 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
Value with a capital V on Jeremiyah Love in pick 21, a genuine coup. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick23 Rnd1 Chris Brazzell II
In Round 1, Pick 23 they get a home-run threat at receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick26 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
A quiet steal in slot 26: Arvell Reese for less than the market said. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick27 Rnd1 Christen Miller
Christen Miller in No. 27 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick28 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick29 Rnd1 Denzel Boston
In pick 29 they get a true top target at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick30 Rnd1 Kayden McDonald
In pick No. 30 they get a run-stuffing presence up front. A real need, handled.
Pick32 Rnd1 Chris Bell
In slot 32 they get a go-to option on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33 Rnd2 Joshua Josephs
No edge and no loss on Joshua Josephs in the 33rd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick37 Rnd2 Kenyon Sadiq
Kenyon Sadiq slipping to Round 2, Pick 5 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It fills a real need, too.
Pick38 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
The board had cheaper options than Olaivavega Ioane at the 38th overall pick, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 CJ Allen
CJ Allen at the 46th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick47 Rnd2 Gabe Jacas
This one needs a full-page explanation: Gabe Jacas in the Round 2 slot, miles early. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick48 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
