Dallas Cowboys, all the time...since 2005.
If the Dallas Cowboys wanted to lean all the way into a best pure athlete mock, we cooked one up. We kept things tied to realistic draft ranges, but when the choice came this was all about looking for the highest-rated athlete at each draft selection. To do that we lean on public Relative Athletic […]
With a change not only at defensive coordinator, but a change in philosophy under Christian Parker, the Dallas Cowboys have undergone several personnel changes. One area that has undergone the most significant shakeup is along the defensive line. Dallas traded away Osa Odighizuwa and Solomon Thomas, with the former going to the San Francisco 49ers […]
The Dallas Cowboys need a lot of help on the defensive side of the ball, but that doesn’t mean that offense is off limits in the upcoming NFL draft. It’s better to grab good players when they fall into your lap than to wait until an urgent need arises, and that could make tight end […]
The Dallas Cowboys need help on defense, with the edge rushing group being one of their needs. After trading away Micah Parsons, the team has been searching for quality replacements.

The Dallas Cowboys, like most other NFL teams, have generally liked having as many roster bases covered as possible ahead of each draft. Gaping holes at certain positions can be dead giveaways for your biggest priorities, which can either force a needs-based picks or reduce your bargaining power for trades. And in 2026, with just […]
When it comes to predicting the Dallas Cowboys first-round draft picks the last couple years, ESPN’s Peter Schrager has proven to have the knack of hitting the nail on the head. Last year he predicted the Cowboys would select guard Tyler Booker with the 12th overall pick, and the year prior in 2024 he predicted […]
Cowboys ‘absolutely’ open to trading up, down in 2026 NFL Draft – Patrik Walker, DallasCowboys.com The Cowboys are not locked into anything at this point.

In 2010, Football Outsiders introduced us to SackSEER, a regression-based formula developed to predict the NFL success of edge rushers selected in the NFL Draft.

College football analyst Bruce Feldman of The Athletic, who is known for his annual “Freak List” of super-athletes, hadn’t heard of Uar Bernard earlier this week, but he along with the rest of the NFL certainly know the name now. Uar Bernard, along with a few other prospects from the NFL’s International Player Pathway program, […]

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 […]

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 […]

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.
