This Dallas Cowboys Mock Draft Should NOT Be Possible | But NFL Executives Say it is...

Author: Zachary Lee March 5, 2026 Duration: 11:54

In this episode, we break down a fascinating NFL mock draft from The Athletic where four NFL executives made their picks for the first round — and the results were surprising, especially for the Dallas Cowboys at pick No. 12.

Several top prospects unexpectedly fell down the board, creating a scenario that could leave the Cowboys with multiple elite options when they’re on the clock. We walk through the picks, discuss which players were taken earlier than expected, and analyze which prospects could realistically still be available for Dallas in the 2026 NFL Draft.

We also talk about how the board might realistically fall, what positions the Cowboys should prioritize, and which prospects would make the most sense for Dallas based on their roster needs and defensive scheme under defensive coordinator Christian Parker.

If the draft unfolded like this, Cowboys fans might end up very happy at No. 12.

Topics include:

  • Breaking down The Athletic’s NFL executive mock draft
  • Why several top NFL Draft prospects slid down the board
  • The best-case scenarios for the Cowboys at pick 12
  • Players Dallas should target in the 2026 NFL Draft
  • How the Cowboys’ roster and scheme impact their draft strategy
