Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The war room fell hard for Shilo Sanders, and it showed at pick No. 239: 46 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. If one pick saves this weekend, it is TeSlaa.

They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In No. 12 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Fair-plus on Jihaad Campbell, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick76 Rnd3 Will Howard
A wild overpay on Will Howard in the 76th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
Pick149 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
O'Donnell Fortune at pick No. 149 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick171 Rnd5 CJ West
The board had cheaper options than CJ West at slot 171, and it noticed. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jaydon Blue
Jaydon Blue at Round 5, Pick 36 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick204 Rnd6 Addison West
A straight-up fair deal on Addison West at the 204th pick, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick211 Rnd6 Robert Longerbeam
Robert Longerbeam at the Round 6 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick239 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders in pick 239 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick247 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Nice patience on Isaac TeSlaa, who had no business lasting to pick No. 247. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
