As the 2026 NFL Draft approaches, the Dallas Cowboys are strongly linked to Auburn Tigers defensive end Keldric Faulk. NFL insider Peter Schrager reports that Faulk's name continues to surface in discussions about the Cowboys' potential picks, possibly at number 12 or 20.
Faulk, who stands at 6-foot-6 and weighs 285 pounds, has been praised as a 'culture player with high character.' This aligns with Dallas' stated goal of finding 'culture-changing' talents in the first round. His defensive contributions include 39 tackles, five tackles for a loss, and two sacks from his final season.
The versatile lineman brings much-needed edge run defense and pass-rushing capabilities to the Cowboys' new multi-front scheme. His ability to disrupt the backfield could fill a void left by previous departures. While some fans may not be initially thrilled, Faulk represents a strategic selection focused on team culture and defensive improvement.
