Cowboys Snag Safety Caleb Downs in Draft

On April 24th, the Dallas Cowboys just made a slick move in the NFL draft, trading

of one spot from 12-11th overall to Snag Caleb Downs, the standout safety from Ohio State.

Their defense needed a serious upgrade, and this 20-year-old phenom fits the bill perfectly

right out the gate.

Downs started his college ball at Alabama, where he balled out as a freshman, then transferred

to the Buckeyes and took it to another level with even.

Four picks and big plays.

Now he's bringing that shutdown energy straight to Dallas, locking down the secondary for

years.

Fans and analysts are loving it.

ESPN's Cowboys reporter Todd Archer couldn't even dig of a real knock on the pick.

He mentioned the minor knee tweak that barely counts and down skipping the 40-yard dash,

but that's it.

No real doubts here.

This graph has everyone nodding in agreement, it's seen as a no-brainer for a team rebuilding

the back end.

Down slides right into the lineup.

Seeing the Cowboys that elite coverage they've been missing.

With talent like this locked in early, Dallas is already looking stacked for the long haul.

Watch this defense turn heads come fall.
