The Dallas Cowboys are preparing for the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine, focusing heavily on defensive linemen. With key players like Osa Odighizuwa, DeMarcus Lawrence, and Chauncey Golston set to hit free agency, the team is looking to bolster its defensive front through the upcoming NFL Draft.

In the first round, Georgia's Mykel Williams emerges as a prime target. His recent meeting with Cowboys' coaches left a positive impression, which could lead to him filling Lawrence's shoes if he departs. Next, Iowa's Kaleb Johnson is viewed as an essential addition to strengthen the running game, especially with the uncertainty surrounding Rico Dowdle’s future. Finally, Omarr Norman-Lott from Tennessee is projected as the third-round pick to enhance the defensive line, despite his need for further development as a run defender.
