PIVOT: Could Cowboys SURPRISE Us With Carnell Tate in Round 1? | Best Player Available?

The Dallas Cowboys face a pivotal first-round draft decision: offense or defense? With superstar contracts for CeeDee Lamb, Dak Prescott, and Tyler Smith already shaping the roster, Marcus Mosher and Landon McCool break down which side of the ball should get the next first-round investment. Is Carnell Tate a game-changing fit alongside Lamb and George Pickens, or does Dallas need to double down on linebacker and secondary upgrades to solidify their defense? 

Key talking points include Daron Bland’s health concerns after a new wave of cornerback signings, the evolving linebacker strategy with possible post-draft trades, and how recent additions like Kendrick and Cobie Durant may signal a shift in slot coverage philosophy. Plus, Mosher and McCool weigh the real value of drafting an offensive lineman or tight end high versus day-three finds. Don’t miss this essential discussion on the Dallas Cowboys’ draft priorities and 2026 playoff hopes.
