Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Cowboys robbed the room for Walker. Final grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Jalon Walker, the 76th pick, roughly 52 picks past where he belonged. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

Every board in the league had Hamilton lower, and that gap is the story. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In No. 12 they get a bell-cow for the offense, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
They will replay Tyler Warren at the Round 2 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jalon Walker
Circle this one: Jalon Walker at Round 3, Pick 12 is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick149 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
A quiet steal in the 149th overall pick: Hollin Pierce for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick171 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A conviction pick on Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick No. 171 that the board grades a round light. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick174 Rnd5 CJ West
CJ West at the 174th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The roster fit checks out.
Pick204 Rnd6 RJ Oben
RJ Oben at slot 204 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick211 Rnd6 Ty Hamilton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Ty Hamilton this early at pick 211. It fills a real need, too.
Pick239 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
They reached a country mile for Hayden Conner at pick 239, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick247 Rnd7 Tahj Brooks
Tahj Brooks in No. 247 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
