One week out. Go on the record for the players you like, whether that is someone from your alma mater, favorite college, or just someone who caught your eye on Saturdays.
Call it “pet cats”, “draft crushes” or whatever you like. Try to place them in the round they are projected to go.
(early) 1st round

Call it “pet cats”, “draft crushes” or whatever you like. Try to place them in the round they are projected to go.
(early) 1st round
- Taliese Fuaga, T, Oregon State
- Troy Fautanu, T, Washington
1st round
- Jackson Powers-Johnson, C, Oregon – I normally can’t stand Oregon players
- Graham Barton, C/T, Duke – I got to spend some time with Duke’s personnel last year during summer scouting. He gave me the heads up on Barton and that NFL scouts were viewing him as a Center.
- Cooper DeJean, DB, Iowa – Not our biggest need but love his versatility and the way he plays the game
- Kingsley Suamataia, T, BYU – Was #1 on my preseason Cowboys draft watch list.
- Payton Wilson, LB, NC State – Injuries, older, but such a good linebacker
- Zach Frazier, C, West Virginia – Tough as nails, reminds me of Creed Humphrey
- Braden Fiske, DT, Florida State – Definition of high-motor kid.
- Keon Coleman, WR, Florida State – Played basketball at Michigan State, was dominant on the field last season for the Seminoles
- Austin Booker, DE, Kansas – Raw but I see Maxx Crosby relentlessness with Micah’s closing speed.
3rd round
- Trevin Wallace, LB, Kentucky – One of my favorite prospects all year. Barely scratching the surface was a high ceiling
- Ricky Pearsall, WR, Florida – I recruited him out of Tempe, AZ but he had the grades for Arizona State. I got to watch him develop for the Sun Devils and I posted here that I thought he had some Cooper Kupp to him. He blew up at Florida.
- Cedric Gray, LB, North Carolina - Amazing sideline-to-sideline player, he rips through gaps.
- Brenden Rice, WR, USC – Another kid I watched in high school. Son of a legend and ended up at my favorite college after an initial stop at Colorado.
- Blake Corum, RB, Michigan – Tough as nails and took time out of his day to hang out with my nephew who idolizes him.
- Ty’Ron Hopper, LB, Missouri - Just always around the ball. I wish he was bigger.
- Isaac Guerendo, RB, Louisville – A ton of athletic traits, I could see him evolving to a quality NFL back
- Luke McCaffery, WR, Rice – Former QB at Nebraska, made the smart move to WR.
- Elijah Jones, CB, Boston College – Another high-traits prospect
- Zak Zinter, G, Michigan – Day 2 talent who suffered a late-season injury
- Jowon Briggs, DT, Cincinnati – A bit undersized but strong as hell. Cowboys would love him as a “1Tech with 3Tech qualities”
- Giovani Manu, T, British Columbia – Rare movement skills for a human of his size. Raw but hist footwork gives me the belief he can develop. I wrote that exact same blurb here in 2018 about Jordan Mailata when he was making the jump from Rugby.
- Blake Watson, RB, Memphis – Some helmet scouting here, but reminds me of a less-explosive Tony Pollard
- Myles Cole, DE, Texas Tech – Traits and size, but can disappear sometimes.
- Qwan’tez Stiggers, CB, CFL – Love the unorthodox path to the NFL for this kid.
- Trey Taylor, S, Air Force – I always root for my fellow service members, especially ones that won the Jim Thorpe Award.
- Darius Muasau, LB, UCLA – Great instincts, undersized
