Breaking News: 2 players for Cowboys fans to keep an eye on during the NFL scouting combine

Throughout Combine week, which draft prospects are you most interested in learning more about?

In the last week of February, coaches and scouts from all around the league assemble in Indianapolis for NFL Combine Week to see the top college prospects who will be selected in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Mike McCarthy, the head coach, and Mike Zimmer, the defensive coordinator, won’t be there, though.

McCarthy clarified that they will both be staying in Dallas to continue assembling the team and refining their new defensive strategy.
“I’ll be working with Zim for the entire week, covering a lot of territory with our ongoing projects.

In addition, we can continue to be directly involved in the combining process through meetings and video chats,while having our coaches on the ground there as well.”

Fans always enjoy watching some of the top stars demonstrate their athleticism and intangibles in a variety of drills at the scouting combine.

A strong showing in Indianapolis can frequently translate into a big rise in a player’s draft stock.

Cowboys supporters should keep a careful watch on these two guys throughout the week since they might end up being selected by the team in the draft.

Brian Thomas Jr., WR for LSU

Throughout the 2023 NFL season, the Dallas Cowboys had trouble in the red zone.

The squad ranked 12th in the NFL despite possessing a potent offence that only scored a touchdown on 58% of its red zone visits.

In comparison, the San Francisco 49ers led the league in this category with a 68% ranking.

The wide receiver position is where the Cowboys need a reliable end zone threat. WR Brian Thomas Jr. of LSU might be an ideal fit for this role.

With his height of 6’4″ and weight of 205 pounds, Thomas has great size for the position.

With 17 receiving touchdowns at the end of the 2023 season, he had the most in the entire nation.

Even though he wasn’t the best receiver on his  team, as teammate Malik Nabers appears to be a future top-10 pick in this upcoming draft.

Given his explosiveness and deep-threat speed despite his small stature

Thomas, an ideal prospect

Thomas is an ideal prospect to improve his draft value in the combine.

A strong 40-yard sprint could support his candidature for a first-round draft selection this year.

Thomas would have been guaranteed a first-round pick in years past. He might, however, miss the first round entirely because this is one of the strongest wide receiver classes in recent memory.

He also might realistically be available at the Cowboys’ number 24 pick, at the very least.

Given the urgent needs at offensive line and linebacker, it might be difficult for some fans to justify selecting a wide out in the first round.

Even though the team may not feel as desperate for wide receivers, they should still consider making an investment in the position.

With an out clause in his contract this offseason, wide receiver Michael Gallup might be cut by the Cowboys before the start of the next year.

At thirty years old, wide receiver Brandin Cooks isn’t exactly Dallas’s Robin to CeeDee Lamb’s Batman.

By selecting Thomas, one may acquire a young player with immediate potential who would support Lamb going forward.
