Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureD
The Cowboys answered their biggest question with Sanders. Grade: B.

The search is over. The Cowboys handed the keys to Shedeur Sanders, and the whole operation now runs on his development. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The cost of the Robinson reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Judkins falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In the 2nd pick they get their guy under center for the next decade. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins in Round 3, Pick 12 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick149 Rnd5 Que Robinson
They reached into another round for Que Robinson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick171 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
Willie Lampkin at No. 171 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick174 Rnd5 CJ West
CJ West in pick 174 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It fills a real need, too.
Pick204 Rnd6 Karene Reid
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Karene Reid. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick211 Rnd6 Kobe Hudson
A straight-up fair deal on Kobe Hudson at slot 211, value and slot in agreement. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick239 Rnd7 Dante Trader Jr.
Dante Trader Jr. at the 239th overall pick is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jabbar Muhammad
Jabbar Muhammad slid further than he should have, and No. 247 is lovely value for the cornerback. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
