Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Cowboys: B-.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Cowboys would have aced it. Mark Perry at the 212th pick is 23 spots clear of where he belonged.

The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Brian Thomas Jr. at pick No. 24 squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick56 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
They paid sticker price for Kingsley Suamataia in slot 56, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick87 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
A conviction pick on Zak Zinter at No. 87 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick124 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
No drama and no debate, Justin Eboigbe went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick174 Rnd5 Rasheen Ali
They paid up for Rasheen Ali at Round 5, Pick 38 when waiting would have done the job. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick212 Rnd6 Mark Perry
They reached a country mile for Mark Perry at the 212th overall pick, and the board is aghast. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick245 Rnd7 Demorie Tate
Demorie Tate at pick No. 245 is a conviction pick that outran the value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
