player. 879. . OT. Tigers . Jackson Carman. 3

With their first of two picks in the third (thanks to a compensatory pick at the end of the round), Dallas adds Clemson offensive tackle Jackson Carman. An underclassman, Carman entered the draft early and has a pretty impressive body of work after protecting Trevor Lawrence’s blind side the past couple of seasons.

Carman is a huge prospect at 6-5 and 345 pounds and some will want to move him to guard at the next level due to his power but that might not be a given. Should Dallas see him as a tackle prospect, he would be a great option to replace Tyron Smith, who suddenly cannot remain healthy.

. CB. Cowboys . Rodarius Williams. 3. player. 856

(Compensatory pick): With their first comp pick in this draft, the Cowboys select Rodarius Williams who is a Cowboy right now for Oklahoma State. Rodarius also has NFL bloodlines as he is actually the older brother of Cleveland Browns cornerback Greedy Williams, who will be entering his third season in the NFL in 2021.

Much like his brother, Rodarius is able to utilize his length to frustrate opposing receivers. He’s also very experienced with nearly 40 starts in his career.

In Dallas, he would likely be the third corner behind Trevon Diggs and Anthony Brown — assuming Jourdan Lewis and Chidobe Awuzie each depart in free agency. He has a lot of upside in this role and could be a steal at this point in the draft.
