FutureC-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Cowboys for Chambliss: D-. You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Cowboys did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.
The Hunter pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. That is a quarterback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.
The bill for those future picks comes due whether the class hits or not.
It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Spencer Fano
Spencer Fano at the 3rd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick7
Rnd1
Caleb Downs
In slot 7 they get a rangy last line of defense at fair value.
Pick16
Rnd1
David Bailey
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get a double-digit-sack hope. More want than need.
Pick23
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In No. 23 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27
Rnd1
Mansoor Delane
In the Round 1 slot they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38
Rnd2
Trevor Goosby
Trevor Goosby at the 38th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick83
Rnd3
Eli Stowers
A tidy little value on Eli Stowers in pick No. 83, a step better than break-even. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick108
Rnd4
Bryce Lance
They reached a country mile for Bryce Lance at the 108th overall pick, and the board is aghast. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick116
Rnd4
Chris Johnson
They paid sticker price for Chris Johnson in slot 116, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick119
Rnd4
Diego Pavia
Diego Pavia at Round 4, Pick 19 is money in the bank, a quarterback taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick156
Rnd5
Jacob Rodriguez
A conviction pick on Jacob Rodriguez at No. 156 that the board grades a round light. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick178
Rnd5
Jermaine Mathews Jr.
Jermaine Mathews Jr. at the Round 5 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick179
Rnd5
Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter at pick 179 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick218
Rnd7
Trinidad Chambliss
Trinidad Chambliss in the 218th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick228
Rnd7
Malik Hartford
No drama and no debate, Malik Hartford went about where he belonged in slot 228. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
