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

No fireworks, just good process: the Cowboys sat on their board and let Demetrius Knight Jr. come to them at the 76th overall pick. No fireworks, but a solid B.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Every board in the league had Broughton lower, and that gap is the story.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In slot 12 they get a centerpiece for the ground game at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 44, where Derrick Harmon graded well above the range. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick76 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
They read the board right and Demetrius Knight Jr. was the payoff at pick 76. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick149 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
No drama and no debate, Pat Bryant went about where he belonged in Round 5, Pick 11. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick171 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
Vernon Broughton at No. 171 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick174 Rnd5 RJ Harvey
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing RJ Harvey in the 174th pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick204 Rnd6 Addison West
No edge and no loss on Addison West in No. 204; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick211 Rnd6 Alijah Huzzie
By-the-book stuff, Alijah Huzzie at the Round 6 slot squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick239 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
Carson Vinson at the 239th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick247 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
Zeek Biggers in Round 7, Pick 31 is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
