Young Kobe 24 DRAFTING FOR THECowboys
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall

FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Cowboys. The rest of the league had time to spare on Rueben Owens II; the Cowboys did not wait, grabbing him 78 spots ahead at the 231st overall pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.
For all the activity, offensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Jeremiyah Love
Jeremiyah Love at slot 12 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick25
Rnd1
KC Concepcion
In No. 25 they get a true top target, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick112
Rnd4
Jacob Rodriguez
A real head-scratcher, Jacob Rodriguez in Round 4, Pick 12 is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick152
Rnd5
Trey Moore
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Trey Moore well ahead of where he belonged. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick177
Rnd5
Cam Calhoun
They talked themselves into Cam Calhoun at pick No. 177, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick217
Rnd7
James Smith
They reached into another round for James Smith, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick231
Rnd7
Rueben Owens II
Rueben Owens II at pick 231 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
