As the 2025 NFL draft nears, there is an increasing feeling based on the interview process that the Dallas Cowboys are focusing on finding a wide receiver with the No. 12 pick to complement their WR1, CeeDee Lamb. Dallas is also in the market for a running back and a cornerback, and, like everyone, can use more edge rushers.

NFL Draft experts are reaching a consensus on what the Dallas Cowboys' likely pick at No. 12 overall will be in next week's first round. Daniel Jeremiah, Mel Kiper Jr., Lance Zierlein and Dane Brugler have the Cowboys grabbing Texas wide receiver Matthew Golden in their latest mock drafts.

Schoonmaker appears to be on the fast-track to becoming another Cowboys early-round tight end draft bust, joining the likes of David LaFleur, Gavin Escobar and Anthony Fasano, all of whom were selected in the first two rounds and none of whom got even close to the 1,000-yard receiving mark (total) with Dallas.
