"The Cowboys seem to have their two outside cornerbacks in Bland, who was just paid well, and Revel Jr., who was seen as a first-round talent who fell due to his injury. Before hearing Parker talk about the nickel cornerback spot, many believed Mansoor Delane could be drafted to play that role. Now that Parker spoke about the position as a clear safety type, Delane seems less likely."
"Last draft, they took a risk on a first-round talent at corner in Shavon Revel, despite a torn ACL that dropped him to the third round. If Dallas wants McCoy, they better have great intel on his knee, after he suffered a torn ACL in January 2025, which forced him to miss the regular season. If the Cowboys like what they see, expect McCoy to be firmly in the mix at 12."
"To noone's surprise, another defensive-heavy mock draft. Pick No. 20 (via Packers): Akheem Messidor, edge, Miami Mesidor began his six-year college career at West Virginia before transferring to Miami in 2020. In his final season, Mesidor had a breakout season with 63 total tackles, 17.5 tackles for a loss, 12.5 sacks, and four forced fumbles.

Parker will implement a defensive scheme that changes the nickel role into a safety-type position, reducing the likelihood of drafting a traditional slot corner like Mansoor Delane. The Cowboys appear set at outside corner with Trevon Bland and Shavon Revel Jr., though health concerns persist. Tennessee cornerback Jermod McCoy remains a potential high pick if medical evaluations on his torn ACL are favorable. Miami edge Akheem Mesidor provided strong recent production, and the Cowboys face possible edge departures in free agency, increasing the need for defensive reinforcements through the draft.
