The Dallas Cowboys made significant moves on Day 3 of the 2025 NFL Draft, starting with their selection of running back Jaydon Blue. They continued to address defensive needs by trading with the Arizona Cardinals to grab linebacker Shemar James from Florida with the 152nd pick. James stands out with impressive stats from his collegiate career, including 64 tackles, 4 tackles for loss, and 2 sacks in his final season, also serving as a team captain. His family, who are long-time Cowboys fans, will be thrilled with his draft choice. As a highly regarded recruit and standout at the Senior Bowl, James is expected to bolster the Cowboys' linebacker position and make a timely impact as they aim for a successful season.
