Cowboys add massive WR prospect, power running back in new mock draft
The Dallas Cowboys have plenty of work to do this offseason as the team looks to revamp its roster to fit the new coaching staff. On the offensive side of the ball, the Cowboys need to add playmakers and that’s the direction they go in a new NFL mock draft.
Chad Reuter of NFL.com shared a new three-round mock draft that addresses wide receiver and running back in the first two rounds while adding a big body in the trenches in Round 3.
In the first round, Reuter has the Cowboys selecting Arizona Wildcats star wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan, who would give the team a massive pass catcher opposite CeeDee Lamb at 6-foot-5.

“Dallas takes the top player still on the board in McMillan, whose 6-foot-5 frame, long strides and strong hands make him a threat down the sideline, in the red zone and over the middle,” Reuter wrote.
This season, McMillan hauled in 84 catches for 1,319 yards and eight touchdowns. It is the second consecutive year for McMillan to surpass the 1,000-yard mark.

In the second round, Reuter has the Cowboys adding a key piece to the backfield in the form of North Carolina Tar Heels power back Omarion Hampton, while rounding out the first three rounds with South Carolina Gamecocks defensive tackle T.J. Sanders.
Hampton capped off his college career rushing for 1,660 yards and 15 touchdowns in 2024, while adding 38 catches for 373 yards and two scores.
Bolstering the offense with McMillan and Hampton would be a major boost for Dallas, while Sanders provides a versatile piece to the defensive line.
The 2025 NFL Draft will be held in Green Bay, Wisconsin, with the first round on Thursday, April 24. Rounds 2 and 3 will be held on Friday, April 25, while the final rounds will play out on Saturday, April 26.
What’s Cowboys Price Tag To Sign Stefon Diggs?
FRISCO – Of the brother pairs currently in the NFL, the Diggs brothers are probably the most notable on the field. Joey and Nick Bosa may have a claim to that title while the Watt and Kelce bros had their reign a few years back. Trevon Diggs has carved out a premier role in the Dallas Cowboys’ secondary, serving as the team’s No.
1 cover corner. Stefon Diggs, on the other hand, maintains his position as one of the better wide receivers in the game. Unfortunately for both players, they suffered separate season-ending knee injuries that ended their respective campaigns abruptly.
Nonetheless, they are hoping for strong comebacks in the 2025 season.

Trevon remains under contract with the Cowboys until the 2029 season, but Stefon is set to hit free agency this offseason.
His deal with the Houston Texans is set to expire. Given Houston’s budding young core of receivers, Stefon’s exit from the franchise may unfortunately be spelled out for him already. But could that change bring him to The Star? On paper, it seems some stars could align in some way.
The Cowboys desperately need help among their receivers group behind CeeDee Lamb and frankly, Jalen Tolbert and Brandin Cooks may not be able carry the weight for that group much longer. However, one key factor could drive a wedge into the Cowboys making this family reunion happen.
