How Christian Parker’s Defensive Overhaul Could Reshape the NFL Draft Landscape Forever

There are players who would have fit the Cowboys regardless of their scheme. Texas Tech edge rusher David Bailey, Ohio State versatile linebacker Arvell Reese and Miami edge rusher Rueben Bain Jr. (evaluators consider his quick hands and lower-body strength sufficient  to compensate for his lack of length) are talented enough to transcend any system and elevate a defense regardless of base front.

Inside linebacker, often the irreplaceable defensive quarterback and top communicator, is a glaring need for the Cowboys to fill either in the draft or free agency. (When asked if he would be comfortable with a rookie leading Cowboys defensive communication, Jones said “yes, yes, a big yes.”) And the Cowboys value more depth at corner, both for the ability to play nickel and because of Parker’s track record developing the position.
