  1. Dallas Cowboys

Myles Jack – LB – UCLA

Some are thinking the Cowboys take Florida State corner Jalen Ramsey with this selection. But Dallas has a more urgent need at linebacker. While Ramsey would help with their secondary, the Cowboys pass defense was fine as it finished in the top five in attempts, yards and touchdowns allowed.

However, their run defense ranked in the bottom ten in attempts, yards and touchdowns allowed. Jack has to prove his knee is healthy, but if Dallas wants to improve in stopping the rush they need a linebacker and Jack is considered the very best at the position in this draft.
