NFL Draft rumors: Cowboys hosted Aaron Donald on pre-draft visit
By Josh Sanchez
The Dallas Cowboys have made a handful of signings during the free agency period to improve their defensive line, but they are still expected to address their front seven early and often in the 2014 NFL Draft.
One of their top targets could be Pittsburgh defensive tackle Aaron Donald, who has been shooting up draft boards since an impressive performance at the Senior Bowl and NFL Scouting Combine.
Donald’s athleticism is intriguing to a number of teams, and the Cowboys decided to take a closer look when they hosted him on a pre-draft visit Monday, according to David Moore of the Dallas Morning News.
If Donald is available when Dallas is on the clock with the No. 16 overall pick, he would be an option that the Cowboys will consider to pair alongside free agent acquisition Henry Melton.
Of course, there is a good chance that Donald will be off the board by the time the Cowboys are on the clock, so they will need to consider other options as well.
