2026 Cowboys Draft Chatter Thread

Honestly him not doing testing numbers works out in our favor. I don't think it will kill him but might be just enough to push him below guys that did test and prove themselves. I think the mental aspect of Downs, the leadership of Downs and those things are off the charts. I think we would have the leader of our defense for the next decade if we could get him.

It’s like Jonah Coleman refusing to work out reinforces the idea he has limited upside.

Instead of a late 2nd-3rd round guy, now I would not be surprised to see him still there at 112

Yeah, I think so. Bain feels like a more complete player than Bailey, and less of a projection than Reese.

The arm length is too much of an outlier for me to take him over those two plus Styles, but after seeing him look pretty comfortable doing coverage drops during his Pro Day I'd have him over Delane at this point, maybe even Downs.

"More likely to go 10-20 than top 10" says Jeremiah who is very connected.

I could easily see it, especially if someone like Bain or Styles is also available to Cincinnati at 10.

For some reason this does not really excite me.

His performance on the field aside, I was really impressed by how he moved. So impressive. I remember how the draft geniuses said Terrell Suggs wouldnt translate to the pros, and he fell. Lots of folks will regret not grabbing Bain.

I agree. I've said before he is a tone setter. I think he raises the level of guys around him. And he is still young at 21 as opposed to these 24 or 25 year old rookies.

Suggsy Wuggsy Woo Kins or Newmsey. Look how that one worked out.

His arms are shorter than 31 inches though. No strong edge rusher in the last 20 years has had arms that short.

I know he can play football, but… I really hope someone else takes him before 12
