Cowboys Draft Bold Picks, Fans Await Defense Fixes

0:00On April 22nd, the 2026 NFL Draft is just one day away and a fresh consensus mock from Bleacher Report has the Dallas Cowboys grabbing two high upside prospects. Using average spots from top mocks across the league, they project the Cowboys taking wide receiver Jordan Tyson from Arizona State at Pick 12 in. In the first round, then Auburn Edrasher, Keldrick Falk, at Pick 20. This wide-out pick for Tyson feels bold since Dallas already has a stack receiver room, but it's all about the future. Think back to when they snag CD-LAM in 2020, a move that paid off big long term, even with George Pickens on the franchise tag right now. Fans are split on these projections, especially since the Cowboys' defense got torched last season and needs instant fixes. Kevin's edition does VILCH for that side of the ball, leaving folks wondering if Jerry Jones is playing the waiting game again. Shifting to Falk, the 6-foot-6, all 76-pound 21-year-old brings massive potential despite a down year with just 20.

1:04Nine tackles and two sex. Experts see his versatility shining under Coordinator Christian Parker, but that learning curve means no quick plug and play help on the edge. Overall, this class builds for tomorrow with two potential studs, but short-term defensive woes might linger, testing Cowboy fans' patience as the real draft kicks off.
