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

You could see the war room lean forward. Cody Simon at pick 174 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

They are betting TeSlaa proves the room right and everyone else wrong. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In pick No. 12 they get a load in the middle. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Dylan Sampson
Dylan Sampson at slot 44 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick76 Rnd3 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner at the 76th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick149 Rnd5 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. in Round 5, Pick 11 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick174 Rnd5 Cody Simon
Cody Simon at No. 174 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick204 Rnd6 Woody Marks
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Woody Marks in pick 204. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick211 Rnd6 Addison West
By-the-book stuff, Addison West at the 211th pick squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick217 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
They left a pile of value on the table to take Isaac TeSlaa this early at the Round 7 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick239 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
They took Cam Jackson at par in the 239th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick247 Rnd7 Bilhal Kone
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Bilhal Kone at the 247th pick is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
