Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall C
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureC
The Cowboys won the night they stopped Muhammad from sliding. Grade: C.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Cowboys did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They banked enough surplus on Muhammad to cover a lot of smaller sins.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In the 14th overall pick they get a downhill hitter at safety, and a steal at that. Need was not the driver here.
Pick30 Rnd1 Colton Hood
In the Round 1 slot they get a sticky cover corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson in pick 62 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick94 Rnd3 Malik Muhammad
Malik Muhammad in slot 94 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick114 Rnd4 Jadarian Price
They went early on Jadarian Price in pick No. 114, and the value did not follow. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick153 Rnd5 Kage Casey
Kage Casey at No. 153 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick179 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
They took Xavier Nwankpa at par in pick 179, which is nothing to complain about. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick181 Rnd5 Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp at No. 181 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick220 Rnd7 Barion Brown
They jumped the gun on Barion Brown, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jerry Wilson
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jerry Wilson. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
