Over the first two days of the 2021 NFL Draft back in April, the Dallas Cowboys owned a whopping five selections in the top 100 picks. All five of those prospects fell on the defensive side of the ball in Dallas.
Trading back two spots in the first round, dropping back from No.10, the Cowboys acquired an extra third-round selection and were still able to land the draft’s top defender in Penn State linebacker Micah Parsons 12th overall.
The second round saw Dallas address their biggest team need, cornerback, with the selection of Kelvin Joseph out of Kentucky.
