Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall

FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cowboys: B-. Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Cowboys never addressed wide receiver, and it is the kind of gap that lingers.
Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
James Pearce Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a problem off the edge. Need was not the driver here.
Pick44
Rnd2
Xavier Watts
By-the-book stuff, Xavier Watts at pick No. 44 squarely in line with his ranking. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
