Believe it or not, the Dallas Cowboys are receiving some high praise for their plan of attack during the 2025 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n

The Cowboys may not have added a wide receiver, which fans were desperately hoping for. However, the front office and head coach Brian Schottenheimer knocked it out of the park in other areas.<\/p>\n

One pick that has continued to be applauded by some in the media has been the Cowboys’ third round selection of East Carolina cornerback Shavon Revel Jr.<\/p>\n

According to an interview Tommy Yarrish of the official Cowboys site had with Revel’s former defensive coordinator and head coach, Blake Harrell, Revel is big on loyalty.<\/p>\n

After a dominating 2023 college football season, Harrell mentioned that Revel could have gone to a top school with a big NIL deal. However, Revel chose to stay with the school that wanted him in the first place.<\/p>\n
