FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Cowboys for Sampson: D. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Cowboys started one anyway for Que Robinson, 91 picks ahead of schedule.
Sampson at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.
Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Ashton Jeanty
In slot 3 they get a featured back. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick8
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In No. 8 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick13
Rnd1
Mason Graham
In pick No. 13 they get a wrecking ball inside at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick49
Rnd2
Harold Fannin Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Harold Fannin Jr. at the 49th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick70
Rnd3
Malaki Starks
A safety of that caliber at slot 70 is the definition of value, full stop. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick77
Rnd3
Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman at the 77th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick113
Rnd4
Que Robinson
Que Robinson in the Round 4 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick151
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick No. 151 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick169
Rnd5
Dylan Sampson
They will replay Dylan Sampson at Round 5, Pick 31 for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
Pick170
Rnd5
Bryce Foster
They paid sticker price for Bryce Foster in No. 170, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick172
Rnd5
Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba at the 172nd overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick188
Rnd6
Kyren Lacy
They reached a country mile for Kyren Lacy at pick 188, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick209
Rnd6
Aydan White
Aydan White at the 209th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
