2026 Cowboys Draft Chatter Thread

Giants about to trade Dexter Lawrence, Eagles about to trade AJ Brown, and we're about to land Dillon Thieneman.

God damn right.
 
I would too. Of all the possibilities I actually think Bain might be the one I'd be most excited about. Assuming the off the field thing is overblown of course. I do think Bain can have a bit of an asshole personality but it sort of fits what he is. A guy who plays football like he hates the living shit out of his opponent.

Well Reese would probably be the one I'd be most excited about but that's like a 0.0% chance.
Bain has been projected as high as second, so yeah, I’d take him short arms and all
 
Melsy Welsy's final is out

 
Every single one of the Brugler, Kiper and McShay mocks this morning has us trading up from 12 to 6 to take Styles.

I'm skeptical that he gets past 5 but if he (or Reese) drop to 6 it seems like a bit of a foregone conclusion that we're going to push hard to move up given how badly I'd imagine Cleveland would like to move down, it's just a matter of price.

McShay had us sending 12/92 and a 2027 2nd for 6, taking McCoy at 20.
Brugler had us sending 12/20 and a 2027 4th for 6/39, taking Stukes at 39.
Kiper had us sending 12/20 for 6/39, taking TJ Parker at 39.

I'd be comfortable with any of those trades as long as we're either getting back 39 or not giving up 20.

McShay also mentioned us being interested in Thieneman, so in the last 24-48 hours you're hearing the same thing from him, Jeremiah, Schrager and Brugler. The only thing left is for them to bring him on a 30 visit and I think you can pencil him in as the pick at 12 if the board gets wiped.

A few other random notes:

-There seems to be a decent amount of buzz around Tyson going to the Saints or Chiefs if they don't trade out/up, which would be great if we stick at 12.
-Brugler had Keldric Faulk at 11 and Malachi Lawrence at 26, thought those were interesting.

is it pretty much consensus thinking now, that Theineman will not last to 20?
 
More or less but only because people expect him to go around 17-19, so he could easily drop 2-3 spots further.

He has been sort of locked into the Vikings. So that's sort of where I think is his ceiling. So if you want to move down I think that's the team you need to be most aware of. But as we have learned in any draft, you really don't know who might take a guy. It's possible someone else likes him that you just don't know about.

If we take Thieneman I'd like to at least consider a trade down before we take him. But I do love the player.
