Cowboys Eyeing Top-10 Draft Pick for Ohio State LB
16 Apr
Summary
- Mock drafts suggest Cowboys may trade up for LB Sonny Styles.
- Dallas has picks No. 12 and 20 in the upcoming NFL Draft.
- No other teams have contacted Dallas about George Pickens.
As the NFL Draft approaches on April 22, speculation is mounting that the Dallas Cowboys are exploring options to move up in the first round. Multiple mock drafts from prominent analysts, including Mel Kiper, Dane Brugler, and Todd McShay, indicate a potential trade with the Cleveland Browns to acquire the sixth overall pick. This move would likely target Ohio State linebacker Sonny Styles.
Stephen Jones, Dallas' executive vice president, commented on the team's draft strategy, suggesting that significant trades often materialize on draft day as team boards solidify and player availability changes. He noted that the Cowboys might consider moving up if a desired player begins to fall, making the cost more palatable. This aligns with the team's past tendency to make first-round adjustments once the draft is underway.
