Cowboys' Draft Pick: Brandon Cisse

0:00On April 23rd, Dallas Cowboys hold the 12th and 20th picks in the NFL draft tomorrow, and folks are buzzing about their options. They could grab a top talent early or trade around, but one name popping up for that 20th spot is Corner Bag Brandon Sissy from South Carolina. This guy's got the tools to step right in and compete. Sissy started at NC State, racking up 38 tackles, five past deflections, and one pick over two seasons. He transferred to South Carolina last year where he posted 27 tackles, another five deflections, a force fumble, and an interception. In December, he declared for the 2026 draft. Word from the combine is the Cowboys met with him officially. Their secondary coach, Ryan Smith, even recruited Sissy back in high school days of Virginia tech. 5 foot 11, 189 pounds, with a 4.4 140 yard dash, 41 inch vertical, and 15 bench reps, scouts. Grade him late first round to early second.

1:01He's agile with quick feet, shines in zone coverage, and reads quarterbacks well, but needs more ball skills, only two picks total in college, and bulk, against bigger receivers. For Dallas, with Deyron Blan and Shavon Rebel Jr. coming off injuries, plus new additions like Kobe DeRan, Sissy fits as a physical boundary corner in their scheme. Draft Nice going to shake things up, and if the Cowboys snack Sissy, he could lock down that depth chart quick, giving their defense that versatile. Edge, they crave.
