Poll: Comparing 3 different Dallas Cowboys mock drafts

This time of year, NFL free agency seems to take forever, yet it has been almost two full weeks already. The Cowboys have only made one addition, veteran linebacker Eric Kendricks, aside from re-signing some of their own players. It appears clear as of right now that the team plans to use the draft to address a number of roster gaps.

The Cowboys need depth in other areas and many new starters in 2024, but they only have eight draft picks total—just three of them in the top 100. Positions they could add to in the draft include running back, receiver, offensive line, defensive tackle, linebacker, and cornerback.

It’s possible that the Cowboys can fill some

Jackson Powers-Johnson, who has recently attracted a lot of attention from the Cowboys, is the new, unquestionable starter at center for the Cowboys in this first mock. Texas running back Jonathan Brooks, a unique player for the Longhorns who suffered an ACL tear in November, comes in after that selection.

However, Brooks should be primed for action come rookie season, and the Cowboys are allegedly qThe Cowboys want to address the tackle position in this mock draft by selecting Oklahoma tackle Tyler Guyton with their first choice.

Guyton played right tackle in college, but a lot of scouts believe he could easily transition to the left side in the NFL. The Cowboys add 360-pound T’Vondre Sweat to their defensive line in the second round, giving them plenty of size between Sweat and Mazi Smith

Patrick Paul, who spent the previous three seasons as a starting left tackle for the Houston Cougars, comes next. Paul is big and powerful, with a lot of athleticism and power, but he is still a little raw, which is why he made it to the third round. However, the Cowboys take a big risk on his qualities here

The Cowboys add 360-pound T’Vondre Sweat to their defensive line in the second round, giving them plenty of size between Sweat and Mazi Smith.

The Cowboys select a fresh running back in the third round with whom to build their offense. At Florida State, Trey Benson was a playmaker extraordinaire. Even though he still needs to polish a few elements, Benson has the potential to take the lead in 2024 in what will probably be a committee. Within the

The Cowboys look elsewhere in the first round this time around instead of the offensive line. It’s difficult to argue with the recent excitement surrounding Adonai Mitchell as a potential first-round selection, especially after seeing his film. With Mitchell, the Cowboys would have a another potent weapon in the passing game to go with CeeDee Lamb and Brandin Cooks.

In this simulation, Day 2 is all about the offensive line, featuring Georgia center Sedrick Van Pran and Yale left tackle Kiran Amegadije. Amegadije is viewed as a plug-and-play left tackle possibility by many draft experts, and his status has been steadily increasing. In the meantime, Van Pran has three years of SEC starting experience, a strong football IQ, and a ton of physicality.
