Dallas Cowboys mock draft: With just a few days remaining until the 2017 NFL Draft, we look at the Cowboys and how they can have a successful draft class…

The 2017 NFL Draft is just days away and speculation is rising. With each passing day, draft analysts and enthusiasts alike do their best to come up with the most likely scenarios for each team. Mock drafts run rampant and seem to change daily. As the draft creeps closer, opinions seem to get wilder and more bizarre. False reports seem to spread rumors and provide differing opinions from about every angle.

With the Dallas Cowboys, the same speculation exists, but one thing is certain: this draft is going to have a heavy focus on defense. It wouldn’t be surprising to see the majority of this draft class on that side of the ball. Rod Marinelli has done wonders with an underwhelming group, but an infusion of talent would likely help Dallas maintain or even build on the success of 2016.
