Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Cowboys drew a line under the quarterback search with Maye: B+.

The Cowboys spent the pick that matters most on Drake Maye, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. Every board in the league had Watts lower, and that gap is the story. On value alone, Jackson makes the weekend a net positive.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In No. 11 they get a passer to set the clock by. A real need, handled.
Pick15 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a problem off the edge at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick23 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick No. 23 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick24 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In the 24th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Payton Wilson. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick46 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
They read the board right and Darius Robinson was the payoff at the Round 2 slot. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick56 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A conviction pick on T'Vondre Sweat at pick 56 that the board grades a round light. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick66 Rnd3 Andru Phillips
They went early on Andru Phillips in the 66th pick, and the value did not follow. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick71 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
They jumped the gun on Devontez Walker, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick82 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
By-the-book stuff, Patrick Paul at the 82nd pick squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick90 Rnd3 Maason Smith
A reach on Maason Smith in No. 90; the board had better options right there. The roster fit checks out.
Pick104 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at slot 104 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick105 Rnd4 Will Shipley
A reach for Will Shipley in the 105th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick129 Rnd4 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Fair-plus on Tyrone Tracy Jr., a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick138 Rnd5 Jared Wiley
No edge and no loss on Jared Wiley in pick No. 138; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick157 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at the Round 5 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick167 Rnd5 Dylan Laube
They paid sticker price for Dylan Laube in the 167th pick, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick181 Rnd6 Decamerion Richardson
Good price on Decamerion Richardson in No. 181, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick190 Rnd6 Dominique Hampton
Dominique Hampton at slot 190 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick200 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
They paid up for Joe Milton III at pick No. 200 when waiting would have done the job. It fills a real need, too.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jha'Quan Jackson
Taking Jha'Quan Jackson in Round 6, Pick 34 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick213 Rnd6 Eric Watts
Eric Watts in the Round 6 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
