Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Cowboys: B.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Cowboys walked out of the weekend still thin at quarterback, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

Every board in the league had Lachey lower, and that gap is the story. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
A conviction pick on Jordan Morgan at the 36th pick that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick63 Rnd2 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen in pick 63 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick84 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick89 Rnd3 Nazir Stackhouse
A clean, defensible pick in the 89th overall pick with a little surplus value in Nazir Stackhouse. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick100 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
No edge and no loss on Danny Stutsman in Round 3, Pick 37; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick107 Rnd4 Graham Barton
Fair-plus on Graham Barton, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick126 Rnd4 Nehemiah Pritchett
A reasonable price with a little left over, Nehemiah Pritchett in No. 126. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick131 Rnd4 Luke Lachey
They went early on Luke Lachey in slot 131, and the value did not follow. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
