Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys let Tracy Jr. fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Call it larceny. Tyrone Tracy Jr. sat on the board until the Round 6 slot, and the Cowboys did not need to be asked twice. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

Bortolini has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In pick 24 they get a building block for the line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick66 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum in the 66th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Taking Junior Colson in the 87th pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick90 Rnd3 Tanor Bortolini
A wild overpay on Tanor Bortolini in Round 3, Pick 27, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick174 Rnd5 Xavier Thomas
They robbed the room for Xavier Thomas here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick216 Rnd6 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
They will replay Tyrone Tracy Jr. at slot 216 for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick226 Rnd7 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee in pick No. 226 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick233 Rnd7 Blake Watson
You do not let a running back like Blake Watson reach No. 233 and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick244 Rnd7 Jowon Briggs
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jowon Briggs well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
