The Dallas Cowboys currently hold the 17th overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. They have major needs at cornerback, safety, the defensive line, and wide receiver among other positions that could use additional depth such as tight end, offensive line, and linebacker. The recent track record for Dallas Cowboys draft picks has been above average but they will need to hit on a few picks this year to try…
The Dallas Cowboys defensive line was a major area of need heading into free agency and they addressed that by signing two former Panthers defensive tackles Gerald McCoy and Dontari Poe.

The team has already made it known that they will not bring back Bryon Jones but there are several other players that will need to be replaced as well. The Cowboys will look to address some of those departures in the draft but they will also have to be…
The following first round mock draft differs from my previous Dallas Cowboys 7 round mock draft in that the Cowboys draft a replacement for free agent Cornerback Byron Jones instead of selecting a ball hawking Free Safety. Other things of note are an early run on Offensive Tackles, a stud run stuffing Defensive Tackle falling down the draft board, and in a surprise addition to the first round, a small…
The 2020 NFL Draft will be the first draft for the Dallas Cowboys under Mike McCarthy. For Mike McCarthy it will mark his first NFL draft removed from the Green Bay Packers organisation where he had virtually no say in the draft process.
