After another dissapointing season, the Dallas Cowboys have some major holes to fill on their roster. With a new head coach coming in, let's look at what PFN predicted in their most recent 7-round mock.
The advanced metrics for Jake Ferguson in 2024 weren’t kind. The Dallas Cowboys desperately need offensive weapons surrounding CeeDee Lamb, and Dak Prescott loves operating over the middle of the field and targeting tight ends. Warren’s presence as a traditional in-line tight end could be an even more significant complement to Lamb, who operates a majority of his snaps from the slot.
Warren is far from your average in-line tight end, and it would be foolish to eliminate that versatility from his game at the NFL level. Maybe the Cowboys don’t use him as a Wildcat QB as often as Penn State, but Warren’s skill set is reminiscent of Taysom Hill, except Warren has been injected with Steve Roger’s Super Soldier Serum. A good offensive mind should have no trouble pushing Warren toward Brock Bowers’s rookie TE receiving yards record.
He’s not T.J. Watt or anything close, but they do share a commonality. Both guys seem to outperform their given athletic skill set by possessing the “better to be lucky than good” trait. With Micah Parsons on the other side, he just needs to be Robin.
All 32 NFL franchises should want Skattebo on their roster after the Texas game. He almost single-handedly won Arizona State that football game while struggling to remain upright. Skattebo lacks the high-end burst of a consistent big-play creator, but he’s got smooth hands and is incredibly difficult to wrangle on first attempt.
The Hokies’ offense is particularly zone heavy, and Tuten excels as a processor on zone runs. Tuten is quick-footed laterally, but he also possesses legitimate long speed to keep his distance against ACC opponents when he finds a crease.
Dixon started in all 12 regular-season games for the Huskies in 2024, registering 43 total tackles, 10 pass breakups, a forced fumble and an interception. His season earned him an All-Big Ten Defense Honorable Mention and was by far the best of his two seasons on Montlake.
On the season, Watts has racked up 74 tackles, which ranks second on the defense. His 46 solo stops also ranks second on the vaunted Irish defense. Watts ranks second nationally with six interceptions, which comes a season after he led the nation in interceptions. Over the last two seasons the Irish star has picked off 13 passes. Those 13 picks ranked third all-time at Notre Dame.
At Missouri, Wease quickly established himself as a reliable target, starting all 13 games in his senior season. He hauled in 49 receptions for 682 yards and six touchdowns, averaging an impressive 13.9 yards per catch.
Over his six years with the Hogs, Clark's versatility stands out. He started as an outside cornerback before moving to middle safety under the direction of former defensive coordinator Barry Odom.
e might not look the part of an NFL starter at 5-foot-11 and 181 pounds, but he possesses the linear speed, instincts and competitiveness to help a team at nickel cornerback.
The Cowboys end their draft with a late round WR dart.
