The Dallas Cowboys sit with the No. 10 draft pick in the upcoming April NFL draft and this early in the process fans are still split amongst where they want the team to go. Prevailing sentiment is for the club to focus on defense after having one of the worst units in all of football for much of the 2020 season.
Others believe that offense is the key to it all and the defense, while yes needing reinforcements, will improve based on addition by subtraction of coordinator Mike Nolan. So which is right? No one knows, and no one will know for the next several years to be honest, but when has that stopped us before? Mock draft season is in full swing, and here’s the latest from around the interwebs of Cowboys projections.
Across these 10 mock drafts (9 national and our Cowboys specific 7-round mock exercise from this week) there are a total of 5 players picks. Only one name hails from the offensive side of the line of scrimmage and all three top corners are represented. A couple exercises include trade down scenarios for the Cowboys, while others have them taking those targets where they sit at No. 10.
