Travis Frederick was ranked 87, taken pick #31. Thats a loss of 56 slots meaning took the guy almost 2 rounds ahead of where he was ranked.
Gavin Escobar, ranked # 84. Taken at 47 representating another loss of 37. A full round ahead of where thought he should go.
Terrence Williams ranked #93, taken at 74, loss of 19 slots so again almost a full round ahead.
Then finally with their last pick in 3rd round, take JJ Wilcox at pick # 80 who was ranked #51. They got their only gain pick of 29 slots so getting him a round later than expected.
Jerry Jones says the team had Frederick, Escobar & Williams all rated in their 20s overall on the board. He believes received tremendous value, I disagree. He did not receive great value, he reached consistently throughout the draft ignoring value at need positions like DL.
If he really wanted value, he should of stayed at 18, taken the tight end Tyler Eifert from Notre Dame and still gotten your center Frederick in the second round. I firmly believe he would of been there and presented far better value!
