Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesD FutureA+
The Cowboys did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The Cowboys put a flag in the ground for Jalen McLeod, 35 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a difference-maker at receiver, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton is a better player than No. 44 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Fair-plus on Deone Walker, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick91 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
A quiet steal in pick No. 91: Chris Paul Jr. for less than the market said. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick137 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish at the 137th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick149 Rnd5 Logan Brown
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 5 slot with a little surplus value in Logan Brown. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick171 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tommi Hill at pick No. 171 is the proof. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jalen McLeod
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jalen McLeod this early at slot 174. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick204 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing KeAndre Lambert-Smith in No. 204. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick211 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
Good price on Joshua Gray in Round 6, Pick 35, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick236 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
They did well to land Cam Jackson in the 236th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick239 Rnd7 Ja'Quinden Jackson
Ja'Quinden Jackson slipping to the 239th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick247 Rnd7 John Williams
John Williams at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
