ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Cowboys for Hudson: B-.

The Cowboys did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Kobe Hudson fell into pick No. 249.

It is not that Gillotte is a bad player; it is that the Cowboys had louder needs to answer first. If Gillotte pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In pick 12 they get a bendy edge with upside. More want than need.
Pick44 Rnd2 Ashton Gillotte
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Ashton Gillotte at edge rusher with quarterback and tight end open.
Pick76 Rnd3 Deone Walker
A quiet steal in Round 3, Pick 12: Deone Walker for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick116 Rnd4 Kalel Mullings
Kalel Mullings in the 116th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick150 Rnd5 Lander Barton
A tidy bit of business in the Round 5 slot, where Lander Barton graded well above the range. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick190 Rnd6 Xavier Scott
Taking Xavier Scott in pick No. 190 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
They took Trey Zuhn III at par in the 211th pick, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick249 Rnd7 Kobe Hudson
Kobe Hudson in No. 249 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
