"I know what you're thinking, and the answer is no, I absolutely do not think the Cowboys should or will target Alabama's quarterback, Ty Simpson, in this year's draft. However, that doesn't mean his draft stock isn't important for Dallas. Simpson seems to be the only quarterback, outside of Fernando Mendoza, who could go ahead of the Cowboys in the first round. If he can make that happen and raise his stock into the top 12, it would push another top player down the board."
"I will throw Notre Dame superstar Jeremiyah Love on this list, even though Dallas just extended running back Javonte Williams yesterday. This is for two reasons. One, because Love fits a similar category to Simpson: if he can lock his draft stock into the top ten, as it seems to be now, it would help push more defensive talent down the board for Dallas to snag."
The 2026 Scouting Combine in Indianapolis will shape NFL Draft positioning through on-field workouts and crucial player–team meetings beyond timed drills. The Dallas Cowboys enter the draft with two first-round picks and need impact additions to return to the postseason. Five prospects to watch at the combine include Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson and Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love. Simpson could rise into the top 12, potentially bumping other top players down the board, and will throw on-field while holding key meetings. Love could also lock a top-ten projection or present a tempting option at pick 12 despite the Cowboys extending Javonte Williams.
