Cowboys Face Tough Decisions in 2026 Draft

0:00On March 30, Dallas Cowboys are gearing up for the 2026 NFL draft, and it could spell trouble for a couple roster guys already on the bubble. Tide-in Luke Schoonmaker, that second round pick from 2023, might finally get the boot after struggling to shine behind Jake Ferguson, and even getting passed by Breven Span Ford. The team is hosting Vanderbilt Tide-in Eli Stowers on a 30 visit and eyeing this year's Tide-in class hard, so if they snack someone fresh. Tide-in Makers days in Dallas look numbered. Meanwhile, safety Marquesa Bell has over-delivered since coming from Florida A&M, but the secondary is getting crowded with new defensive. Coordinator Christian Parker's rebuild. Additions like Jalen Thompson, PJ Locke, Kobe Durant, Dary and Kendrick, and a restructured Malik Hooker mean Bell could be the odd man out. Especially if they draft Caleb Downs or Dylan Theaneman. Tides are warning against top corner-backed or Mad McCoy, due to injury risks.

1:00They need instant impact, not richer projects like Shavon Revol Jr. turned out to be. On the flip side, signing former fourth-rounder Kobe Durant is looking like a steal, ranked top under the radar free agent move. Dallas is also scouting explosives 6-3 wide-out, Caleb Douglas from Texas Tech for 2026, even with CD Lamb and George Pickens. Locke didn't smart to plan ahead while the offense stays stacked.
