Cowboys pursuing national champion WR to help CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens

The Dallas Cowboys already have an impressive passing game with QB Dak Prescott and WRs CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens.

They've got the chance to make it even better in the 2026 NFL Draft, if they want. There are a ton of talented wide receivers in this draft class.

The Cowboys are looking deeper into at least one -- Omar Cooper Jr.

According to Ryan Fowler, the Cowboys are hosting the Indiana national champion on a visit.

On the one hand, it'd be a fascinating player for Dallas to end up with, although maybe it'd be with the idea of insurance if Pickens doesn't eventually get a long-term contract.

On the other, Cooper is good enough that it could still be worth it.

He played four college seasons for the Hoosiers, and he broke out in his last two years.

In 2024, Cooper averaged 21.2 yards per catch, which led the Big Ten.

Then in the 2025 title season, he had 69 catches for 937 yards and 13 touchdowns. That included the near-impossible leaping, toe-tap grab at the back of the end zone to rescue Indiana against Penn State in their closest game of the year.

Dallas would certainly enjoy having that kind of talent on its roster, and the Cowboys will dig deeper into Cooper to see what he might be able to bring to the NFL.
