With the NFL Draft approaching, the Dallas Cowboys are likely trying to figure out who best suits their team. There have been plenty of names that could be linked to Dallas’ selection at the 10th pick. These names include cornerback Caleb Farley of Virginia Tech, cornerback Patrick Surtain II of Alabama, offensive tackle Rashawn Slater of Northwestern, and even guard Alijah Vera-Tucker of USC.

Selecting an offensive lineman could be beneficial to the Cowboys especially after struggling in that department in 2020. This unit was arguably one of the worst last season as they ranked 27th worst in the league, according to pff.
