Overview
- Cowboys officials met with Indiana wideout Omar Cooper Jr. on a top-30 visit Thursday, one of at least eight stops on his pre-draft tour reported by NFL Media.
- Cooper is widely projected for the late teens to early 20s of Round 1, which lines up with Dallas’ No. 20 selection, and the team also holds pick No. 12.
- Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said the club will target defense but will not pass on a great offensive player if the value is right.
- Dallas also scheduled a visit with Miami corner Keionte Scott and met Texas linebacker Anthony Hill Jr., underscoring concurrent work on secondary and linebacker needs.
- George Pickens remains on a one-year franchise tag without a reported multiyear deal, which makes a cost-controlled receiver like Cooper a potential contingency or bargaining chip.
