And with the 25th pick in the first round:
25. HOUSTON TEXANS: CB CHIDOBE AWUZIE
Previous Pick: S Jabrill Peppers (Browns via trade)
The Texans’ biggest area of need right now is help in the secondary, and Awuzie is the cornerback left on the board with the best track record over a three-year span. He’s been solid in coverage for the Cowboys the past two years, with coverage grades of 65.4 and 70.5 to go along with an allowed completion rate of 62.5%. Those aren’t spectacular numbers, but they also aren’t going to kill your team. Looking at the players left on the board and the sort of value that a player like Awuzie has brought to the table, it makes sense for him to go here to a team that could use him.

So once again the Cowboys nailed a draft (2016 & 2017), landing two first round picks in the 2nd and 6th rounds respectively.
