Draft Grade — Cowboys

Good, not great, for the Cowboys: B-. Of all the ways to open, the Cowboys chose the head-scratcher, spending pick 20 on T.J. Parker with wide receiver, cornerback and other spots still wide open. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.
The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
David Bailey
In pick No. 12 they get a problem off the edge. Need was not the driver here.
Pick20
Rnd1
T.J. Parker
They bypassed pressing needs at wide receiver, cornerback and other spots to take T.J. Parker, an edge rusher that was not the priority.
