2025 NFL Draft: Favorite players for Cowboys on Day 2 (round 2 and 3)

Who are some second and third-round targets you like for the Cowboys?

The Dallas Cowboys currently have a total of two draft picks on Day 2 in the 2025 NFL Draft, the 44th overall pick in the second round and the 76th overall pick in the third round. There is a chance they could acquire more draft capital in either the second or third round if they make a trade, however, that’s pure speculation right now.

Today, we’re looking at our favorite players who we would like to see the Cowboys target with the 44th and 76th overall picks. We decided to stick with the current roster “needs” after being “selectively-aggressive” by trading for and signing free agents in free agency.


Running back

Pick 44: Kaleb Johnson, Iowa

Pick 76: Cameron Skattebo, Arizona State

Johnson may not be a homerun hitter, but his vision, patience and ability to set up his blocks are the best in the draft class. He’s a workhorse RB with the nose for the end zone.

With his low center of gravity, contact balance, and hard-nosed running style, Skattebo is extremely difficult to tackle. He is similar in a way to Marion Barber.


Wide receiver

Pick 44: Jack Bech, TCU

Pick 76: Isaiah Bond, Texas

From doing the dirty work as a blocker to his receiving skills, Bech reminds a lot of Cooper Kupp. He’s a QB-friendly WR who would pair nicely with CeeDee Lamb.

Bond is a little bit of an enigma. He has all of the tools to become one of the best WRs in the 2025 draft class, but so far lacks the consistency. His ceiling is worth betting on though.


Offensive line

Pick 44: Jonah Savaiinaea, Arizona

Pick 76: Marcus Mbow, Purdue

Savaiinaea has the talent and length to remain at OT, but his best fit at the next level could be kicking inside to G. He can challenge to start at RG in Dallas and provide depth at RT.

Mbow is one of the most athletically gifted OL the entire draft class. He has the position flex to potentially start at RT, RG, or C with the Cowboys, which could be invaluable.


Defensive tackle

Pick 44: Alfred Collins, Texas

Pick 76: Jordan Phillips, Maryland

Collins is the big-bodied, space-eater the Dallas defense is currently lacking. He’s an ideal 1-technique in Matt Eberflus’ scheme who could challenge to start as a rookie.

Phillips is one of the younger DTs and is still a little raw, but with more consistency and more time to develop he has the talent to be one of the best in the draft class.


Defensive end

Pick 44: Princely Umanmeilen, Mississippi

Pick 76: Bradyn Swinson, LSU

Umenmeilen still needs to improve as a run defender before he can be considered a full-time starter, but his pass rushing ability could get him on the field early with the Cowboys.

Swinson is still flying a little bit under the radar, however, he has the talent to be an impact pass rusher at the next level and could be an early contributor for the Cowboys.


Linebacker

Pick 44: Carson Schwesinger, UCLA

Pick 76: Chris Paul Jr., Mississippi

Schwesinger’s sideline-to-sideline speed and ability to quickly read and diagnose plays has him always around the football. He could be an ideal WILL LB in Eberflus’ scheme.

He’s a little undersized (6’1″, 235), but Chris Paul is a high-energy MIKE LB who makes plays all over the field and has a nose for the ball in both the running and passing game.


Cornerback

Pick 44: Trey Amos, Mississippi

Pick 76: Jacob Parrish, Kansas State

Amos is equally as good as a run defender as he is in pass coverage and fits what Matt Eberflus likes at the CB position. He would challenge to start as a rookie.

Parrish has the versatility to play outside or in the slot, but being a little undersized likely be a nickel CB at the next level who would immediately replace Jourdan Lewis in Dallas.
