Sturm posted an article on The Athletic that showed of our 27 draft pics the last 3 years, only 8 were pre draft visitors. Of those 8, only Prescott and Woods were picked on day three. So recent trends suggest that we could see a majority of our picks be players that haven't made an official visit.

Here are a few candidates I see based on interst shown and fit.

Daylon Mack, DT, Texas A&M- We met with him and the EW Shrine game. Looks like he will be a mid rounder. Big DT that is able to fire off the snap. The talent and value could line up here if he lasts into the middle of day day 3

Josh Oliver, TE, San Jose State- We had a private workout with him recently. Very talent TE. Looked at as a mid round prospect but I think he is much than that. I think he is just as good a prospect as the guys we brought in. The guys we brought might not be worth the 58th pick, and might not be there at 90. Or there may be better value at 90. Oliver could still be there when our comp 4th comes up, and I could see him possibly being at the top of their board at that point.

Penny Hart WR, Georgia State- We showed interest in him very early in the proccess. Pure slot WR that can also return kicks. Likely a late rounder

Isaiah Johnson, CB, Houston- Maybe I missed it but I don't see him as a 30 anywhere. However we have shown alot of interest in him. He fits the mild of a Richard CB to a T and with Jones and Brown FA's in 2020, a CB makes sense. Looked at as a day 2 pick
 
Dallas Day invite but not an official 30...as far as I know.
Ah ok. Seems they are pretty high on him. He is guy to me that looks much better on the field than he does in a workout. He looks like more of a swing DE/DT, but it wouldn't shock me to see him have success at RDE.

Id be all for a Collier pick. He is guy you just know you are getting a contributor out of
 
DT Daylon Mack would be a gem if the Cowboys could get him somewhere early in Day 3. He is another Antwaun Woods type...with equal size: 6'1", 320+, strong, quick, low to the ground and aggressive.

Well obviously you can’t bank on drafting the 30 visit guys past round 1 or 2, the impact of these visitors has been on day one, where 7 of our last 8 first round picks have been pre-draft visitors. The only exception being Mo Claiborne, the consensus best defensive player in the draft.

Expecting a team to choose from a pool of 30 players after pick 60 is basically impossible.
