Dallas Cowboys' PASS RUSH Needs SPARK - Will Malachi Lawrence Be the ANSWER? | NFL Draft Rumors!

The Dallas Cowboys eye explosive edge rushers in the NFL Draft—can Malachi Lawrence transform this defense? Marcus Mosher and John Owning break down rising draft prospects like Malachi Lawrence, Ahkeem Mesidor, and Keldrick Faulk, comparing their athletic profiles and forecasting how each could fit Christian Parker’s scheme.
