Cowboys Sitting On 1 'Sneaky' Position To Watch in NFL Draft

As we get closer to the NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys' selections, for the most part, are reasonably set in stone for the first two rounds.

The consensus is receiver and running back could be Dallas' first two picks, considering the glaring needs at both positions.

Other needs include corner and possibly offensive line as Brian Schottenheimer begins to fill out his roster.

So they are the "biggest" and most reported needs for the Cowboys, but we offer one that might sneak up on people in the later rounds - tight end.

Why you say? Glad you asked.

Jake Ferguson is on the final year of his rookie deal, and we have to look no further than Dalton Schultz to see how the Cowboys might view his situation in 12 months time. 

Plus, Luke Schoonmaker, who will be in Year 3 hasn't shown he is capable of being a consistent outlet in the passing game, despite his good run-blocking chops, and Brevy Spann-Ford is a developmental player who is entering his second season.

So there isn't a lot of positive juice coming from Lunda Wells' room. Of course, Ferguson dealt with injuries and a concussion last year, so a bounce-back year is on the cards, but we are approaching this from a wider lens with a look at possible options in the draft.
