JOIN THE DLLS DIEHARDS! https://www.alldlls.com/join-diehard
Jeff Cavanaugh has a surprise for his latest Dallas Cowboys mock draft. He’s not going with Ashton Jeanty in the first round, instead opting for Michigan cornerback Will Johnson. He does go running back in round two, though, selecting Omarion Hampton in the second to shore up the Cowboys’ rushing attack. Watch to find out why Jeff went the way he did! Love it? Hate it? Who would you select at 12th overall if you’re Jerry Jones and the Cowboys front office? Let us know in the comments!

N0!!! NOT WILL JOHNSON!!!!
i've always thought Kaleb Johnson reminds me of when we had Demarco Murray.
Stingley is a great comp for Johnson in terms of journey from freshman to the draft. Johnson has elite 2023 tape and said he wasn't playing fully healthy or confident then. He has such a high ceiling, but we already have corners that get injured a lot and you mentioned the tackling so I'm torn on him. Barron is a great alternative, a little smaller more good tackler and more versatile because he can play in the slot or wide.
Hampton hopefully makes it to 44 if we don't take Jeanty, going to be a loooong wait. I would double up with a speedier back like Tuten or your guy Blue.
Alexander is awesome, he does everything well. He's a little older of a prospect so that's the only tough thing if he doesn't hit the ground running and needs time. I really like Omar Norman-Lott in the third as an alternative. He's lightning quick off the snap and super efficient as a pass rusher. He'll have to prove himself a decent run defender and his conditioning because of the heavy rotation Tennessee uses.
Guy you should check out: Joshua Gray, OL, Oregon State. Plays all over the line, solid technique, good mover and decent strength. Older prospect and questionable length so he could be a late day 2/early day 3 guy.
This the perfect draft to hop around and trade up and down the board. All these guys in this draft are really just different types of players. Do you want this type of guy or that
are you crazy😂😂😂😂
I did a mock last night with Will Johnson, Hampton and Alfred Collin’s. I’m down with this approach.
Dream draft great job
Dallas and Michigan players just don’t mesh on nfl level
Front to back Mike Green Edge Rusher
If Will Johnson is the pick at 12 we can wave goodbye to Diggs😕
That's what that would likely mean and he's going to Washington for sure 😅
Not your best work Jeff…you know they won't take a CB at #1 esp one with Tackling and Speed questions…Come on Jeff, not what you need or want in your R1 pick! There are other CBs that are better and in the later rounds. Shocked you didn't take a WR in R1. Hampton won't be there at 44…neither will Johnson or Henderson. Those are your powerhouse RBs, including Jeanty, that are true RB1s. All others are RB2s that will need support from another RB. We don't have time for a developmental DT. We need to get them in FA and re-sign OSA! NO WR in 3 rounds, so not until R5, R6, R7??? We have plenty of those in house!!
I want Jeanty or Will Johnson
I really like this fit with will johnson and eberflus defense
I’m so sick of mock people saying, cowboys don’t need Jeanty cause there’s other back in the draft. None of these backs are close to Jeanty. Jeanty is a bigger prospect than Zeke when he came out. It’s a no brainer grab Jeanty if he’s there
Jeanty or trade down assuming one of the other top 4 guys aren't there
What positions are considered premium positions? QB, OL/LT, pass rusher, receiver, and corner back, but with thew new coaching staff should we add running back and linebacker?
Defforest Buckner anyone?
Have you watched Jackson Woodard UNLV yet? Here's here's what I've got: #7 LB Jackson Woodard 6-3 230 Arkansas>UNLV SENIOR [2023=116TT; 9TFL; 2.5 sacks; 1 int; 2 QBH; 4PD] [2024= 135 TT; 17 TFL; 3.5 sacks; 0 FF; 2 FR; 4 int; 5 QBH; 16 PD] [2023 All-MWC 1st Team] impact player vs Boise State; athletic, quick; good tackler; wraps up; 10/25/2024 spied RB Ashton Jeanty most of the game and kept him in check, had double digit tackles in the game, including a TFL; 2024 Mountain West Defensive Player of the Year; Shrine Bowl; PET CAT
As a Cowboys and Hawkeye fan I prefer Kaleb Johnson.
Wrong
Quick question Jeff, can they franchise Osa?
Take the best player period.
Walter Nolan
No receiver ? No thanks .Teams will stack the box to stop the run .
Keep Michigan players off the list in the first round.
Forget draft picks how about you guy's trade jerry jones for Mark Cuban😂 because it's gonna take far more than a RB to help you
Trade back. Draft Kenneth Grant or E. Egbuka
Will johnson available at 12 to me no brainer. Take him . Deep running back class .
