Dallas Cowboys

Best value of the weekend goes to the Cowboys for Moss: B+.

Future B-

Thirty-one other rooms let Miller Moss slide, and the Cowboys were the ones holding the card at the Round 5 slot. Highway robbery. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They will need Slackman to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Harold Perkins Jr. · LB · rank 26
In pick 25 they get a three-down second-level presence at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.15 · Pick 47 · Xavier Watts · S · rank 28
Circle this one: Xavier Watts at slot 47 is a fall that decides a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R2.30 · Pick 62 · Josaiah Stewart · DE-EDGE · rank 52
They read the board right and Josaiah Stewart was the payoff at Round 2, Pick 30. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R3.14 · Pick 78 · Ollie Gordon II · RB · rank 82
Ollie Gordon II at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R3.26 · Pick 90 · Riley Mahlman · OT · rank 100
A reach for Riley Mahlman in the 90th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R4.16 · Pick 117 · Jabbar Muhammad · CB · rank 108
Nice patience on Jabbar Muhammad, who had no business lasting to the 117th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R4.30 · Pick 131 · Jaeden Roberts · OG · rank 132
They paid sticker price for Jaeden Roberts in pick No. 131, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.15 · Pick 153 · Donovan Edwards · RB · rank 147
A clean, defensible pick in No. 153 with a little surplus value in Donovan Edwards. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.31 · Pick 169 · Miller Moss · QB · rank 90
Miller Moss at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
R5.32 · Pick 170 · Tez Johnson · WR · rank 145
You do not let a wide receiver like Tez Johnson reach pick No. 170 and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.33 · Pick 171 · Ricky White III · WR · rank 157
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Ricky White III at the 171st pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.35 · Pick 173 · Gunnar Helm · TE · rank 164
Gunnar Helm at slot 173 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R6.14 · Pick 189 · Nick Martin · LB · rank 186
Nick Martin at pick 189 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R6.33 · Pick 208 · Joey Slackman · DL · rank 234
A real head-scratcher, Joey Slackman in the 208th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
