I used Great Blue North Draft Report for draft order. I’m also using NFL Draft - 2015 NFL Draft Prospects - CBSSports.com - NFLDraftScout.com as a default player board.
1(27) Gerod Hollimon FS 6-0/201 Louisville
Hollimon has been my top target for some time and he finally debuted on CBS’s board this week as their 28th ranked player. He leads the nation with 13 interceptions and with one more will tie the NCAA record that has stood for 46 years. His tackling needs work but his ball hawk skills would be a huge boost to this defense.
2(59) Tre’ Jackson G 6-4/330 Florida State
The Cowboys almost pulled off a trade last draft to acquire LSU guard Trai Turner so it’s clear the team wasn’t done with the O Line renovation. Tre’ Jackson is a 330-pound, three-year starter for the Seminoles. He steps in at right guard with Zack Martin replacing free agent Doug Free at right tackle.
3(91) Eric Kendricks MLB 6-0/230 UCLA
The younger brother of Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Mychal, Eric is a 3-year starter and leader of the Bruins defense. He has led the team in tackles the last two seasons and already has 110 tackles this year. Kendricks can play Mike or Will and gives the Cowboys flexibility with all of their potential free agent linebackers (McClain, Durant, Carter).
4(123) Preston Smith DE 6-5/270 Mississippi State
Preston compares to current Cowboy Tyrone Crawford. He can play the strong side end and then slide inside to tackle on pass-rushing downs. The Cowboys seem to be utilizing the Seahawks‘ “throw bodies at it” approach with the defensive line, so Smith’s versatility will be a plus.
5(155) Jamison Crowder WR 5-9/175 Duke
The Cowboys have the tall, outside receivers in Dez, Terrance Williams, and 2014 draftee Devin Street. With Dwayne Harris and Cole Beasley entering free agency, the Cowboys need to find slot types and Crowder has been a dangerous weapon for the Blue Devils. In four years, he’s caught 256 passes for 3291 yards, has 1695 return yards, and has found the end zone 25 times.
*6th round pick goes to Baltimore (Rolando McClain)
*7th round pick goes to Tennessee (Lavar Edwards)
7a(207) from San Diego (Sean Lissmore) Owamagbe Odighizuwa DE 6-3/270 UCLA
Player compares to 4th round pick Preston Smith but with him still be available on the CBS draft board here, he was too good to pass up. Good combination of strength and explosiveness, his future is probably at 3-Tech.
7b(211) from Baltimore (Rolando McClain) Quinten Rollins CB 6-0/203 Miami(Ohio)
My 2014 sleeper, I think he might fly up draft charts once we get to the all-star games and combine workouts. He played basketball for the Redhawks for 4 years and was a team captain the last 2 years. He had 1 year left of eligibility for football and has been a star CB this season. He has 62 tackles, 4 interceptions, and 12 passes defended. At 6-0 and 205 lbs. and pretty physical, he could be a good fit as a Tampa 2 corner.
