Draft Grade — Cowboys

The Cowboys cashed the board's mistake on Simon: B. Somebody in pick No. 217 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Cowboys sat still while Cody Simon, the No. 132 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.
The West pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback.
They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Kelvin Banks Jr.
In the 12th pick they get a building block for the line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44
Rnd2
Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams in slot 44 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick76
Rnd3
Cam Skattebo
A reach for Cam Skattebo in the 76th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick149
Rnd5
Kyle Williams
Taking Kyle Williams in the Round 5 slot is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick174
Rnd5
Addison West
Addison West in pick 174 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick204
Rnd6
Upton Stout
Nice patience on Upton Stout, who had no business lasting to pick No. 204. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick211
Rnd6
Howard Cross III
A premium they did not need to pay, Howard Cross III a notch or two before his time. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick217
Rnd7
Cody Simon
The board fumbled Cody Simon all the way to Round 7, Pick 1, and they scooped it up. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick239
Rnd7
Woody Marks
Woody Marks at pick No. 239 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick247
Rnd7
Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson slid further than he should have, and slot 247 is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
