Cowboys' Mock Draft: Sonny Styles & Cisse

0:00On April 17th, the Dallas Cowboys are laser focused on the 2026 NFL draft after trading Micah Parsons for first round pick this year, and missing the playoffs. With Dak Prescott still in his prime and George Pickens potentially on the roster, they need to rebuild fast to chase postseason glory. This mock draft has them trading up to pick 6 with the Browns for Ohio State linebacker Sunny Styles, a freak athlete who crushed the combine, and could fix their awful linebacker play right away. They snag a second rounder from that trade at Pick 39 for South Carolina cornerback, Brandon Sissy, another athletic monster with massive, upside and coverage perfect for depth behind Doron Blan and Shavon Revel.

Fans are buzzing about styles as a Parsons replacement with off-ball versatility in Eddrusher flashes, while Crawford and Sissy bring raw tools that new defensive coordinator Christian Parker can polish quick.

If this draft shakes out, Dows could reload their defense and add weapons, setting up a real shot at contending while Prescott slings it, keeping the star-powered offense humming and the cowboys back in the hunt.
