Dallas Cowboys 2021 NFL Mock Draft Roundup

Throughout the year and leading up to the 2021 NFL draft, we will update our Dallas Cowboys Mock Draft Roundup showing picks for the Dallas Cowboys from several prominent sites and draft analysts.

For a more inclusive lists of mock drafts for the Dallas Cowboys, check out our 2021 Dallas Cowboys Mock Draft Database.

The following are picks in recent mock drafts for the Cowboys:

Pro Football Network - DiCecco (6/7)
28) Dallas Cowboys: Andre Cisco, S Syracuse

The Cowboys have a solid starting cornerback tandem in Chidobe Awuzie and Trevon Diggs, and Jourdan Lewis is a fine nickel defender. However, safeties Xavier Woods and Ha Ha Clinton-Dix don't project as long-term options at safety. Cisco, my top safety, has the requisite ball skills, range, and versatility to make an impact in his first season.

Fox Sports - McIntyre (6/7)
12. Dallas Cowboys -- Micah Parsons, LB, Penn State

Jerry Jones has the makings of another Top 5 offense, but the defense is full of holes. Parsons will be talked about in the same breath as Isaiah Simmons, who went eighth in 2020 to the Cardinals.

Walter Football (5/19)
18. Dallas Cowboys: Paulson Adebo, CB, Stanford

The Cowboys drafted Trevon Diggs, but they still need another cornerback. Paulson Adebo has great size, coverage skills and play-making ability. He struggled a bit in 2019, but could rebound next year.

CBS Sports - Edwards (5/12)
22. Dallas Cowboys: Nick Bolton, LB, Missouri

Bolton needs some refinement, but he is a high-energy linebacker. By traditional standards he is undersized, but there is no overlooking his impact on the game.

CBS Sports - Trapasso (5/4)
28. Dallas Cowboys: Pat Freiermuth, TE, Penn State

Freiermuth runs like a gazelle in the open field and has enough twitch to create separation. More weapons for Dak Prescott.

PFF - Renner (4/30)
24. Dallas Cowboys -- TE Brevin Jordan, Miami (FL)

Jordan looks next in the long line of Miami tight ends. As a true freshman, he caught 32 balls for 287 yards and broke seven tackles along the way. He followed that up with 35 catches for 495 yards and five broken tackles last year. He has the speed to be a real downfield threat at the position.

San Diego Union Tribune (4/29)
24. Dallas (22/1) -- Kyle Pitts, TE, Florida

Pitts leads a tight end group significantly better than the 2020 class.

SI - Hanson (4/27)
23. Dallas Cowboys: Richard LeCounte, S, Georgia

The Cowboys nailed their 2020 draft, but one of the positions of need they didn't address was safety. They do so here. LeCounte, who has five interceptions over the past two seasons, can take over in 2021 for HaHa Clinton-Dix, who signed a one-year deal to join the Cowboys this offseason.

Bleacher Report - Miller (4/27)
28. Dallas Cowboys -- TE Pat Freiermuth, Penn State

While definitely not the biggest need, we saw in the 2020 draft that the Dallas Cowboys want to surround Dak Prescott with talented weapons. Penn State tight end Pat Freiermuth is well worth the price of selecting him in the late first round.

Had Freiermuth entered the 2020 draft class, teams would have seriously considered selecting him over Notre Dame's Cole Kmet, who was the first tight end off the board. A solid 2020 season could push Freiermuth into a lock as a first-rounder.

SB Nation - Kadar (4/27)
27. Dallas Cowboys: Quincy Roche, Edge, Miami

A transfer from Temple, Roche comes to Miami with 26 career sacks. With Tyrone Crawford entering free agency next offseason, the Cowboys could save some money by replacing him.

The Athletic - Brugler (4/27)
27. Dallas Cowboys -- *Talanoa Hufanga, SS, USC

You don't need to know Hufanga's number, just follow the ball and that is where he will be. His aggressive nature will work against him at times, but he competes with outstanding effort and anticipation to make plays versus the pass and the run.
