Gregg Rosenthal · Apr 15, 2026
Rosenthal expects Ruben Bain to be drafted in the top 10-12 and believes he won't get past the Cowboys at No. 12, expects David Bailey to be taken early (hard to see him out of the top six) and to go before Bain, and pegs Kiante Scott as a late-second to third-round pick.
“I would think Jerry Jones would take him.”
