You can read the full mock/article here http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-s...l-combine-two-round-mock-draft-155706803.html

I am just putting the picks they chose for the Cowboys...

27. Dallas Cowboys — Texas DT Malcom Brown

With Henry Melton’s return in real question, the Cowboys tab another former Longhorn here to fill his place. Brown’s penetrative ability would be a real asset on a defense that relies on its front four to supply pressure to help the back end. There’s no edge rusher here to reach for, so the Cowboys can come back to that spot later in the draft.


60. Dallas Cowboys — Florida State DE Mario Edwards

Edwards’ final season at FSU was disappointing, but the Cowboys are among the teams willing to rewind tape to find talent. Edwards could help replace Anthony Spencer on the strong side.

That is a really bad mock draft......

Jay Ajayi to the Steelers??????

42. Atlanta Falcons — Wisconsin RB Melvin Gordon.......yup...that's gonna happen

62. Green Bay Packers — Connecticut CB Byron Jones......Over react much?

I'd take Malcom Brown though if he were to fall that far......Not a big fan of Edwards though

If teams think that Brown is a guy that will stay on the field in the Nickel then I think he will go earlier. If he does not project to staying on the field in the Nickel then I don't think the Cowboys would draft him in the 1st.

The Cowboys did talk to Edwards. He is a big strong, Strong-Side DE but I'm not sure about his pass rush abilities.

I'm not sure about Edwards either. I don't love the guys play. He's a good athlete for his size but it doesn't translate on the field.

The only reason he would appeal to Dallas IMO is because he could play more than one position depending on the down/distance. But I don't think they'll want him.

Byron Jones wasn't a surprise to everyone. He was already in Daniel Jeremiah's top 50. He was invites to the Senior Bowl but couldn't play due to a torn labrum.

If the Cowboys do draft Mario Edwards Jr., Jason Witten will have been a teammate of the father and his son.

Hey, welcome to the team. I played with your dad.
