1 (5th) Caleb Farley CB 6’2” 197 Virginia Tech
Do you guys remember when Jerry proclaimed Mo Claiborne was the highest-rated CB since Deion? Well, as you can expect from Jerry, that was hyperbole. Farley has been a focal point for me for 3 years. I was so early on him that I would ask guys like Matt Miller and Dane Brugler am I crazy for loving this kid. Now, everyone has come around. Athletically and size-wise, he is one of the best Cornerback prospects I have seen since Deion. GPS tracking had him at 24 mph in a game last year (Tyreek Hill tracked at 22 mph). Farley teams with Trevon Diggs to give the Cowboys two tall and athletic bookend Corners for the foreseeable future.
2 (37th) Daniel Faalele T 6’8” 400 Minnesota
Like Farley, Faalele is a player I have been monitoring for a while now. I saw him up close when he first arrived at IMG Academy as an Australian rugby player. A lot of times when you have a human being this big, they struggle with the quick, athletic movements required in football. Daniel has unique mobility for such a large man and he’s still scratching the surface on technique. He can help the Cowboys now in jumbo and goal line packages; long term he can be the eventual replacement for Tyron Smith.
3a (69th) Trevon Moehrig S 6’1” 208 TCU
Our long national nightmare is over if the Cowboys add this centerfielding Safety to the defense, especially in the 3rd round. If you Dallas-area guys aren’t currently watching him, start immediately. Day one starter at Free Safety.
3b (100th) Jordan Davis DT 6’5” 330 Georgia
Another large human being, Davis would bring some athleticism to the 1Tech position and allow the Cowboys to move on from the under-achieving Dontari Poe.
4a (111th) Jaycee Horn CB 6’1” 205 South Carolina
I don’t think he is anywhere close to being available at 111 in real life. The son of former Saints WR Joe Horn, Jaycee is another big, physical Corner. Remember, the Cowboys could lose Chidobe Awuzie, Jourdan Lewis, and Daryl Worley to free agency after 2020; CB depth will be needed.
4b (143rd) Reggie Roberson Jr. WR 6‘0” 200 SMU
I’m a subscriber of the Draft-a-WR-yearly Front Office philosophy. One of my players is at SMU and when I attended some practices last season, I couldn’t get over how smooth Roberson's routes were and how relaxed he was on every catch. The game seems easy to him. Recently hurt, he’s already put up 474 yards receiving and 5 TD in 4 games for the Mustangs this year.
5 (traded to Philadelphia)
5 (178th) Jaelan Phillips DE 6’5” 258 Miami
With the year he’s having he should go way higher than this. A Former 5-star recruit, he has missed significant time with injuries. He’s not as quite as explosive off the snap but he really reminds me of Randy Gregory.
6 (traded to New England)
6 (213th) Kuony Deng LB 6’6” 235 California
A former junior college kid, Deng has great size and athleticism (anyone seeing a trend with me yet?). He’s still learning the nuances of football with only a few years of playing since transferring over from basketball. The Bears use him as an inside backer in their 3-4, whereas I envision him as a Sam backer who has the height and agility to run with Tight Ends.
7 (219th) Hunter Long TE 6’5” 240 Boston College
He’s exploded on the scene this season, and with teams admiring the George Kittle’s and Travis Kelce’s of the NFL world, I can see him rising way up draft boards. This particular draft board has him available here so I’m taking him. In his two previous years he had 32 catches for 612 yards. In 3 games this season, he has already caught 25 balls and 2 TD’s.

But really, if he can play, once he leaves Blacksburg I welcome him in Dallas. I'm still mostly speechless about Juan. I singlehandedly wished him all the way down the draft board and into their laps.
