Back to EpisodesCowboys Eyeing Sleeper Edge Rusher Malachi Lawrence
Description
The Dallas Cowboys are considering edge rushers for the 2026 NFL draft, with notable prospects like Rueben Bain Jr., Akheem Mesidor, Cashius Howell, and David Bailey. However, analyst John Owning is advocating for UCFs Malachi Lawrence as a sleeper pick at number twenty. Lawrence, ranked fifth among edge prospects, has impressive size, length, and speed, with a 4.52 40-yard dash, 40-inch vertical, and 10-10 broad jump. He recorded 20 sacks over four seasons at UCF, including 7 in his senior year. Despite needing work on run defense, Lawrences potential and NFL Combine performance make him a strong contender for the Cowboys draft pick.
