LOCKDOWN: 3 Under-The-Radar Cornerback Prospects The Dallas Cowboys Could TARGET During NFL Draft!

Dallas Cowboys target under-the-radar cornerbacks in 2026 NFL Draft. Could Chris Johnson's elite speed and tackling make him a first-round steal for Dallas? Marcus Mosher and Landon McCool break down Johnson’s rapid rise up draft boards and why his physical style fits Christian Parker’s secondary vision. They compare Johnson's fluidity and discipline to other top prospects, weighing his fit against Power Five competition. 

The conversation shifts to Malik Muhammad’s potential as a third-round pick, spotlighting his sticky coverage and concerns about size against bigger NFL wideouts. Daylen Everett’s athleticism and run defense come under the microscope—does his SEC pedigree make him a better slot corner at the next level? Key analysis includes the Cowboys’ cornerback needs, comparisons among Muhammad, Everett, and Johnson, and what traits Dallas values most in this draft cycle. Are the Cowboys about to find their next shutdown corner?
