With the 137th pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys selected defensive lineman LT Overton from Alabama. The Cowboys have been re-setting their defensive line and they add another piece.

Overton is a slow-twitch end with impressive power and a consistently rugged demeanor. He has long arms and plays with the anchor/leverage that helps him secure his gap. However, he rarely gains early positional advantages and isn’t going to be a gap-shooter. He lacks range in pursuit and won’t threaten tackles to the corner with his get-off as an edge rusher. Overton’s play strength and leverage create power on the edge, but power won’t trump production. Adding mass and moving inside to 3-technique could be in his best interest.

EDGE: The Micah Parsons trade left a huge hole at pass rusher, the Cowboys need an injection of talent.

LB: It’s basically DeMarvion Overshown or bust at LB. Shemar James may make a leap, but Dallas needs a starter here.

CB: Trevon Diggs’ departure and DaRon Bland’s injury issues means the team needs help. The current depth is lackluster.

S: Christian Parker’s scheme needs quality safeties, something the Cowboys have a lack of except for free agent addition Jalen Thompson.

WR: George Pickens is on a one-year franchise tag. Getting another contender for the future is a solid move.

OT: Tyler Guyton and Terence Steele both have their faults. Adding a decent swing tackle makes sense.
