NFL draft week is just two weeks away, meaning mock draft season is winding down. As we creep toward draft day, one thing we are hearing a lot here recently is the possibility of a Dallas Cowboys trade up in the first round. Today’s mock will feature that rumor. We will use the Pro Football […]
It seems like almost every report about a potential first-round pick in the 2026 NFL draft refers to the player as a “future Pro Bowler,” and if the author is hedging his or her bets, it’s a “potential Pro Bowler.” Historically, the first round hasn’t produced quite as many Pro Bowlers as these reports would […]
Cowboys fans are dreaming big again after Sonny Styles works out with key coach – Jason Kandel, The Landry Hat The Cowboys have been very quiet at linebacker this offseason, but finding a way to land Sonny Styles in the draft would fix that in a hurry. Odds are that Ohio State linebacker Sonny Styles […]
Offensively, the Cowboys have everything you could ask for at the skill positions. Two elite receivers, an upper-echelon quarterback, a borderline Pro Bowl running back, and a multi-Pro Bowler at tight end. When you look at that, the Cowboys have an embarrassment of riches. Yet, when you examine the offensive line, it’s not as star-studded. […]
The Dallas Cowboys front office has been movers and shakers over the last 365 days, repeatedly swapping out players for premium draft capital and vice versa. Following a whirlwind of big trades involving stars like Micah Parsons, Quinnen Williams, George Pickens, Kenny Clark, and Osa Odighizuwa, the draft board has taken on a higgledy-piggledy landscape that is only fitting […]
We continue our 2026 NFL Draft preview of draft prospects that could interest the Dallas Cowboys. Today we are looking at Indiana cornerback D’Angelo Ponds. D’Angelo Ponds CBIndiana HoosiersJunior 3-star recruit 5’9”182 lbs History As a freshman in 2023 at James Madison, Ponds played all 13 games and made 10 starts, putting up 51 tackles, two tackles for loss, two interceptions, […]
There has been a lot of recent talk about the Dallas Cowboys moving around in this year’s draft after Jerry Jones spoke at the owner’s meetings. While currently sitting right on the border of a first-round graded player with the 12th overall pick by most draft analysts, the Cowboys could look to trade up or […]
We recently saw that the Cowboys enter the 2026 NFL Draft with the most draft capital they’ve had since the 2016 NFL draft that delivered Ezekiel Elliott (4th overall pick), Jaylon Smith (34th), Maliek Collins (67th), Dak Prescott (135th), and Anthony Brown (189th) among others. That draft delivered five starters and also sets up high […]
How Tennessee’s Jermod McCoy Saved the Cowboys Draft Plan – Mark Heaney, Inside The Star Good news out of the Jermod McCoy camp. 1. You Can Feel Good About Jermod McCoy at 12 The first thing on this list is fairly obvious: you can feel good about drafting McCoy at 12 after this Pro Day […]
The Dallas Cowboys head into the draft with a defensive wishlist longer than a Texas highway, and most fans are hoping their first-round pick will be someone who can tackle something. However, the draft has a funny way of shaking out, and sometimes things don’t go according to plan. If their top defensive prospects are […]
Continuing the series of mock drafts where we focus on subject, we move on from a pure defense mock, and a pure offense mock, and this time look at what would happen if Dallas went pure best player available. We are using Pro Football Focus rankings for this exercise. We ignore positional value here and […]
The Dallas Cowboys have a need at linebacker, that’s no secret. To their credit, they went after multiple players at the position like Nakobe Dean and Quay Walker during the first wave of free agency, but both chose to sign with the Las Vegas Raiders. There are still plenty of veteran linebackers on the market […]
The idea of the Dallas Cowboys drafting a defensive end in the first round of this month’s draft is hardly a new one. In fact, many fans would say the need for Dallas to draft one goes as far back as last offseason when the Cowboys traded away one of the game’s best pass rushers […]
Cowboys Dubbed Landing Spot For 10-time Pro Bowl EDGE With 132 Career Sacks – Mike Moraitis,Cowboys on SI Cam Jordan is still a free agent. “The Dallas Cowboys could be a fit for Jordan, too. After trading Micah Parsons last season, they haven’t quite recovered. They were seemingly in on Maxx Crosby, but nothing ever […]
Let it be understood that nothing is impossible during the NFL draft. We have each gone into different drafts thinking that there was no way that the Dallas Cowboys or any other NFL team would do one thing or another, only to find out that that was their plan all along. It is an adventure […]
The Dallas Cowboys’ secondary was not a happy place in 2025. After watching the defense struggle immensely last year, the front office finally opened its checkbook a little bit by signing free agents Jalen Thompson and P.J. Locke. They join a room that still features the veteran presence of Malik Hooker and Markquese Bell. While […]
We still have one major event to go in the roster acquisition phase of the offseason. The draft can alter the future for a franchise, so nothing is locked in yet. There could also be a major trade that happens. But much of who an NFL team will be in 2026 is already in place. […]
With all the weapons the Cowboys have, it’s very easy to overlook the tight ends. Quarterback Dak Prescott does an excellent job of incorporating his tight ends in the passing game. Jake Ferguson leads a very well-rounded group and the remainder of the tight end group offers a variety of skills. Let’s further examine the […]
Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry traded down from the No. 2 pick last year in the 2025 NFL Draft, and recently acknowledged he could be looking to trade down from No. 6 this year based on the statement he made to the media at the NFL owners meeting. “It really just depends on prospects […]
Cowboys’ Brian Schottenheimer is diving head first into the NFL draft process in Year 2 – Joseph Hoyt, Dallas Morning News Brian Schottenheimer is dug in on the 2026 NFL Draft. AUSTIN — Brian Schottenheimer has said he’s good when it comes to the football side of being a head coach. “But I’m great with people,” the Cowboys‘ […]
We have officially entered draft month! The 2026 NFL Draft is now just weeks away, meaning draft rankings and big board’s should be pretty much completed at this point, at least for the most part. There’ll probably be a little shuffling and reshuffling prior to “draft day”, but overall teams should have a pretty good […]
Meeting with the media at the NFL Owner’s Meetings, Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said the team has the capital to move up or move down when it comes to the draft. Jerry Jones, Stephen Jones, and Schotty believe they are well-positioned to draft the “best player available,” but the defense could still use […]
It wasn’t that long ago when the pass rush of the Dallas Cowboys was the heartbeat of the defense, with starters and depth to make most teams jealous. In what feels like the blink of an eye, the team suddenly finds itself in dire need of edge rushing help. They made a big trade to […]
One of the biggest enigmas entering the 2025 season was what the Cowboys had in their running back room. For several years prior, all of their starting solutions at running back had come in-house. From Ezekiel Elliott in 2016 through to Tony Pollard in 2023, to Rico Dowdle eclipsing Elliott in 2024. Thankfully, the Cowboys […]
You could argue that no single Dallas Cowboys player has been better at their job the last three years than Brandon Aubrey. Given that, it may seem surprising that he finds himself in a prolonged contract negotiation this offseason. But based on a few factors, it makes sense for Dallas to play hardball with their […]
