"Barham played mostly off-ball linebacker in 2025 for the Wolverines. At only 240 lbs., his size is better suited to that role. But with explosive traits as a pass rusher, Barham figures to be moved around the front seven and do plenty of blitzing as well."
"Adding both tonight is a tremendous boost to Dallas' weakest position going into the draft. Barham offers much more bulk and run-stopping potential compared to Dee Winters, who factors in as a clear nickel LB."
"Barham's versatility is a trait that likely brought him to the Cowboys. It not only allows for unpredictable usage in games, but it's good insurance against medical concerns for Overshown."
Jaishawn Barham was selected by the Cowboys as a versatile EDGE/LB from Michigan. Although primarily an EDGE prospect, he played off-ball linebacker in 2025. At 240 lbs., his size suits this role, while his explosive pass-rushing traits allow for varied positioning in the front seven. The Cowboys also acquired Dee Winters, enhancing their linebacker depth. Barham's addition, alongside Malachi Lawrence, strengthens a previously weak position. The Cowboys may still pursue additional linebacker prospects or veteran free agents to further bolster the unit.
