The Dallas Cowboys claimed they were going to take "the best player on the board" with the 12th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, and they decided to fill a need along their offensive line with the selection of Alabama Crimson Tide All-American guard Tyler Booker.

With the NFL Draft on Thursday, Cam Ward is expected to go No. 1 overall to Tennessee. But two quarterbacks, Shedeur Sanders (Colorado) and Jaxon Dart (Mississippi), might be available at No. 12. Jones put an end to possibly drafting a quarterback in the first round.

After the first round of the NFL draft was completed late Thursday, the Cowboys leaders met with the media and talked about Tyler Booker.
