Cowboys should consider this offensive player in 1st round

The Cowboys have a sneaky need at one offensive position
Just throw every draft pick on defense. This feels like a fair mentality for the Dallas Cowboys relative to the upcoming NFL draft.

Cowboys can make a smooth transition by drafting this cornerback

NFL insider explains how Caleb Downs can fall to Cowboys
The idea is dangerous to entertain. Caleb Downs is among the best players in this year’s NFL draft class. Any thought that he could wind up with a star on his helmet feels foolish. We can’t let ourselves believe it. There is no way. Why subject ourselves to that hurt and pain? A light flickers, […]
