Recent NFL mock drafts suggest the Dallas Cowboys are likely to select a top wide receiver in the upcoming draft, aiming to pair this new player with CeeDee Lamb to strengthen their receiving corps and give quarterback Dak Prescott more options on offense.
In his latest mock draft, ESPNโs Mel Kiper Jr. forecasts that the Cowboys will pick a standout wide receiver with their first-round selection, a move intended to enhance the team’s offensive strength.
This draft strategy is also influenced by the Cowboys’ recent coaching decisions. Offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer, who joined the team in 2022, is a strong contender for the head coach role. His deep knowledge of the team’s offensive setup could play a role in choosing a wide receiver.
The goal is to create a dynamic receiving duo with Lamb and a new star wide receiver, aiming to boost the teamโs offensive output in the upcoming season.
