"Dillon Thieneman checks a lot of boxes: experience, ball production, range, football IQ, etc. Oh, and he absolutely stole the show at the 2026 NFL Combine, too."
"If there were ever a draft to throw positional value out the window in round one, this is it. Thieneman projects as an instant starter in the Dallas Cowboys' defense."
"If things played out like they did in Eisner's 11 picks prior, Dallas would likely be doing everything possible to move out of their pick."
The Dallas Cowboys are preparing for the 2026 NFL Draft with two first-round picks, a first since 2008. There is a possibility that all top defensive players will be off the board by their 12th pick. Jaime Eisner's mock draft suggests that if this occurs, the Cowboys may select Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman. Thieneman is noted for his experience and performance at the NFL Combine, but selecting him could be seen as a disaster scenario for the franchise's future.
