2023 NFL Draft: Day 3 targets for the Dallas Cowboys

With two days of the 2023 NFL Draft in the books, the Dallas Cowboys have acquired three players to help their football team this upcoming season. After taking a run-stopping beast on Day 1 in the form of Mazi Smith, the team selected tight end Luke Schoonmaker and linebacker DeMarvion Overshown on Day 2. The Cowboys will now turn their attention to Day 3 as they draft four more players and then sign a new crop of priority free agents.
