Kamren Kinchens had to wait a while to hear his name called during the 2024 NFL Draft. By the time he was selected, 98 players had already come off the board. His stock had slipped, not because of production or character, but because of a stopwatch. A 4.65 40-yard dash at the combine knocked the Miami safety down draft boards, and by the end of Round 3, the Los Angeles Rams were happy to take the gamble. It didn’t take long for that bet to pay off.

The Dallas Cowboys might be facing more questions than answers as they head into the 2025 NFL season, but one thing remains clear: their top-tier talent is still among the league’s best. In Trevor Sikkema’s latest rankings for Pro Football Focus, the top three players for each team, the Cowboys are represented by Micah Parsons, CeeDee Lamb, and Dak Prescott. Entering the new season, it’s hard to argue otherwise. Parsons, now entering his fifth year, continues to be the heartbeat of the defense.
