I saw a thread or two trying to list cowboys specific grades but this is the first chart that I saw that has the entire division.

If this needs to be folded in somewhere else, that’s fine.

Nice. Thanks for posting. I think this draft is going to help us this year but more importantly it’s a foundational draft and it’s going to pay dividends as we move forward. I feel like you got to secure the trenches as much as possible before you get the skill players. This was a meat a potatoes draft. I predict next year is when we make the big splash sexy picks like WR and RB.

True. It's only speculative until the pads go and the whistle blows.

Everyone gets As and Bs on this its like public school

I have no idea what public school your kids went to, but I have twins, and they went to different high schools, one public and one a private college prep school.

An A at the private school was 90-100. At the public school, 96-100.
A B was 80-89 at the private school, 88-95 at the public school.

The girls took mostly the same classes and made roughly the same numeric grades, but my daughter at the public school had a lower GPA due to the scoring system. It's been a while, so my memory isn't perfect about their exact GPAs, but the private school child walked away with a 3.5x and my public school daughter was below a 3.0 despite making the 'same grades' numerically.

If you're simply referencing 'no child left behind', I hear ya, but they aren't passing out As and Bs like M&Ms in public schools in Memphis.

 

[Rayman70]

Universally great draft we had. But we can revisit the grade in 3 years. I give them an A for effort.

 

[Acceptablename]

Means absolutely nothing

It's about having fun

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Loool, who put together that table?

The “total” grades are absolutely bunk.

8 out 9 grades the Giants received were an “A” of some variety and averaged out to an A-.

Yet, the Cowboys received an “A” (of some variety) in only 4 of the 9 grades and somehow also averaged an A-.

Bunk.

2025 NFL Draft Grades: Your One-Stop Shop for Analysis and Insights on Every Pick​

PFN
April 26, 2025

New York Giants​

Overall Draft Grade: B​

For better or worse, the ultimate ruling of the New York Giants’ 2025 NFL Draft class will be decided by Jaxson Dart’s outcome. If he becomes the franchise QB they believe he can be, then this class is a success. If Dart ends up being a bust, then it’ll be an irreconcilable stain on an otherwise excellent haul.

The Dart move was aggressive, and somewhat borne out of desperation for Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll, but at the very least, Dart does have the athleticism, toughness, and elastic arm to grow into a quality starter in time.

And credit where credit is due: The rest of the draft was stellar for New York. Abdul Carter is a blue-chip player, Darius Alexander and Marcus Mbow can be starters in the trenches. Cam Skattebo is a great RB to add to the stable, Thomas Fidone is a quality TE2, and Korie Black is good depth.

Dart’s development will make or break this group to a degree, but players like Carter also have the potential to impact the franchise in a positive way far past any QB transition. The Giants’ talent core has greatly improved, but it’s the wild card at QB that will shape the fate of the entire regime... Read more

___________________

PFN's grade is really the only outlier for the Giants. Remove its B grade and its composite grade would have remained an A- (3.81) but closer to an A (e.g. 3.90). More impressively, omitting the single T18 rank would shave its 4.8 overall rank to an even lower 3.1.

Essentially, BTB's summary suggests that New York's draft haul was not only head-and-shoulders above the rest of the NFC East. They blew the other division members completely out of the water. It is all speculation but a tiny bit humbling at the same time, albeit in an abstract way.

Thanks, Jaxson Dart. You really skewed their grade curve, lol.

Did you expect any objectivity from BloggingTheBoys

 

[Bigdog]

Everyone gets As and Bs on this its like public school

Would love to have gone to that public school then

 

[RodeoJake]

What's fun about these draft grades and evaluations is revisiting them after the season to see how far off they were.

No, there, standard and reasons count...

 

[CCBoy]

What's fun about these draft grades and evaluations is revisiting them after the season to see how far off they were.

I look for reasons and why's involved before chest medals for vanity.

Here is a real set of measureables as to directions now:

Dallas will need just under $5 million of cap space to pay their rookies in 2025, whose contracts are worth a total of $65.8 million combined. Here's a look at the details, courtesy of Over The Cap, who updated their numbers from what was published pre-draft.

Cowboys Total Rookie Pool​

The Cowboys land in the middle of the pack as far as how much money they'll dole out to their rookie class, ranking 14th highest of the 32 teams. Dallas' pool sits at $12,528,134 for their nine picks.

 

[Creeper]

Everyone drafts. Everyone is happy with their draft right after the draft and then in 2 or 3 years when none of their draftees remain with the team, the will forget about it and cheer the next draft.

Just remember, we drafted an OT in the first last year who could not beat out Chuma Edoga for a starting role.

The majority of the players drafted last weekend will be out of football in a couple of years. A handful will make a pro-bowl, and maybe 1 or 2 will be selected to the Hall of Fame.

 

[jblaze2004]

I kind of liked our draft. Booker at 12 was a head scratcher but I guess if you wanted to get your guy u gotta get your guy.

Also trading up for the LB Shemar James was another head scratcher but they wanted their guys so we will see how this pans out.

 

[big dog cowboy]

If every one gets an A or B from all those sources, what's the point?

 

[Kwyn]

The “total” grades are absolutely bunk.

8 out 9 grades the Giants received were an “A” of some variety and averaged out to an A-.

Yet, the Cowboys received an “A” (of some variety) in only 4 of the 9 grades and somehow also averaged an A-.

Bunk.

Standard grading with letters can translate to percentages but the exact numbers can vary by district.

Anyway, I think this is how it went.

A+ = 98
A = 95
A- = 92
Etc

So, the Giants had

A+ (1)
A (3)
A- (4)
B (1)
Total: 821/9 = 91.222

Cowboys
A+ (1)
A (1)
A- (2)
B+ (3)
B (2)
Total: 811/9 = 90.111

So, anything between 90 and 92 will yield an A- while the giants, within the A- range, numerically came out higher as they should.

 

[Kwyn]

If every one gets an A or B from all those sources, what's the point?

If you track down each of the nine sites, you see a broader range. The four NFC East teams graded higher, overall, than most other divisions.

There are some teams out there who graded out in the B range.

One thing I have found surprising across all 32 teams is that few sites gave out many C grades so yeah, they do tend to be more generous than one might expect.
