"The Cowboys surrendered a league-high 30.1 points per game last season to completely justified double-dipping with defensive players in this first-round projection."
"Linebacker was a significant sore spot last year. While Georgia's CJ Allen is graded higher on B/R's board, Golday has better physical traits in the makings of becoming an every-down linebacker."
"It wouldn't be surprising if the owner Jerry Jones sees a lot of Leighton Vander Esch, who Jones chose with the 19th pick in 2018, in the Cincinnati product."
The Dallas Cowboys need to enhance their defense after allowing a league-high 30.1 points per game in 2025. The team has already added David Bailey to improve their pass-rush and is now targeting linebacker Jake Golday from Cincinnati. Golday's athleticism and versatility could address the significant weaknesses in the Cowboys' defense. While CJ Allen from Georgia is rated higher, Golday's physical traits suggest he could develop into a reliable every-down linebacker, reminiscent of former player Leighton Vander Esch.
