When it comes to safeties, the Dallas Cowboys, and the 17th overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, there are really only two names that analysts have been concentrating on.
Many a draft expert has sent Alabama’s Xavier McKinney or LSU’s Grant Delpit to the Cowboys when filling out their first-round mocks. That’s logical in many ways. Those are two very talented prospects, players hailing from big-time programs, and the Cowboys are in sore need of help at the safety position. It makes sense.
There is another name that makes sense though, a name that didn’t necessarily dominate the SEC.
