Cowboys' Dream Draft: 2 Corners, 2 Problems?

0:00On April 15, Dallas Cowboys hold two first-round picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, sitting at number 12 and number 20 overall. Sports Illustrator writer Gilberto Manzano lays out a dream scenario where they grab LSU Cornerback, Mansour Delane at 12, and Tennessee's Jermad, McCoy at 20, to rebuild that secondary. He argues, owner Jerry Jones should skip trading up for an edge rusher like David Bailey and just stack the back end with Talon instead of losing. Picks, fans and analysts see the appeal in locking down the past defense for years, but plenty point out the bigger holes up front of the line. The real priority screens for a game-changing edge or linebacker to pressure quarterbacks may be Ohio State's sunny styles if they trade up a bit. Either way, doubling up on corners like this hasn't happened in the first round since 2017, and while it could work, leaving the front seven-week might haunt them long-term.
