Cowboys best pick, biggest surprise, and remaining needs among other takeaways
"The Cowboys absolutely nailed the first-round with S Caleb Downs and edge Malachi Lawrence, then followed it up with some solid selections that could push for a starting role this year."
"Dallas may have toed the line in not drafting redshirt players, but with Devin Moore and his well-documented injury history at Florida, they are betting on his immense talent."
"LT Overton is a bit of a tweener coming out of Alabama. He doesn't really have the speed or athleticism to be a full-time edge player and may not have the mass/strength to hold up full-time on the inside."
"In the end, they got their man and he should come in and completely transform Dallas' defense for the better, from both a physical and mental standpoint."
The Dallas Cowboys prioritized defense in the 2026 NFL draft, achieving notable success with their selections. They secured S Caleb Downs and edge Malachi Lawrence in the first round, both expected to significantly enhance the team's defense. Jaishawn Barham was drafted as an inside linebacker, while LT Overton's position remains uncertain. The Cowboys also took a chance on Devin Moore, a talented cornerback with injury concerns. Additionally, several undrafted free agents were added, including former Baylor TE Mic, who has a strong chance of making the roster.
