The Cowboys let Price fall into their laps, and walked away with a F. The Cowboys lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again. The warnings were there, and the F is the bill.
A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. On value alone, Price makes the weekend a net positive. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.
Bottom line, it will take a lot of luck to make this look better later.
Pick Analysis
Pick10
Rnd1
Caleb Downs
In No. 10 they get a centerfielder for the defense, outstanding value to boot.
Pick12
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In slot 12 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick16
Rnd1
Jermod McCoy
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get a sticky cover corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick49
Rnd2
Sonny Styles
A quiet steal in the 49th overall pick: Sonny Styles for less than the market said. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick82
Rnd3
Jadarian Price
Jadarian Price in pick No. 82 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
