The Cowboys have issues at each level of the defense, which is why Florida State defensive back Jalen Ramsey and UCLA linebacker Myles Jack will be in play with the fourth pick. But if Ohio State defensive end Joey Bosa is still available, he would arguably make the greatest impact for the Cowboys.
A natural fit at left defensive end, Bosa would give Dallas defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli options with Demarcus Lawrence and Randy Gregory at right defensive end. Bosa has the skill-set to move inside on passing downs and would instantly upgrade the Cowboys’ rush attack.
1. Tennessee Titans: Laremy Tunsil, OT, Ole Miss
Priority No. 1 for the Titans should be to protect Marcus Mariota, something they have struggled to do consistently in 2015. Tunsil is arguably the most talented player in this year’s draft class and able to contribute from day one, pushing Taylor Lewan over to right tackle.
2. Cleveland Browns: Carson Wentz, QB, North Dakota State
Hue Jackson has made it clear that the most important task for the Browns this offseason is to find a quarterback. And although Wentz lacks ideal experience coming from the FCS-level, he is the total package in terms of traits. With Josh McCown under contract for the 2016 season, Wentz won’t be pressed onto the field from day one.
3. San Diego Chargers: DeForest Buckner, DE, Oregon
San Diego ranked near the bottom of the league in pass rush production in 2015 and needs to address the position in the draft. Buckner has steadily improved each year and isn’t yet at his football ceiling, fitting the Chargers’ 3-4 base.
4. Dallas Cowboys: Joey Bosa, DE, Ohio State
The Cowboys need to address the defensive line this offseason and if Bosa is still available at pick No. 4, but I don’t think he’ll still be around at pick No. 5. Bosa would be an ideal fit at left end in Rod Marinelli’s scheme with Demarcus Lawrence and Randy Gregory rushing off the right side.
