Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
Larceny in slot 44 lands the Cowboys a B, Nolen and all.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Walter Nolen, pick No. 44, roughly 24 picks past where he belonged.

A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In slot 14 they get a bell-cow for the offense, outstanding value to boot.
Pick44 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Walter Nolen reach the 44th pick and blink. They did not. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76 Rnd3 Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter in pick 76 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick117 Rnd4 Kyle McCord
No drama and no debate, Kyle McCord went about where he belonged in the 117th overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick149 Rnd5 Trevor Etienne
Trevor Etienne at pick No. 149 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick171 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin in Round 5, Pick 33 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick174 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
Quincy Riley at the Round 5 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jaylen Reed. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick204 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
By-the-book stuff, Joshua Gray at the 204th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
A tidy bit of business in No. 211, where Jason Marshall Jr. graded well above the range. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick232 Rnd7 Ricky White III
They read the board right and Ricky White III was the payoff at the Round 7 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson in pick 239 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick247 Rnd7 LaJohntay Wester
They took LaJohntay Wester at par in Round 7, Pick 31, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
