Cowboys eye 6'5" receiver
Dallas is scouting Georgia offensive playmakers and has its eye on a 6'5", 215‑pound receiver touted for a massive catch radius. (insidethestar.com) That kind of size‑plus‑catchability fits the Cowboys’ need for a contested‑catch target in short‑to‑mid range. (insidethestar.com)
Georgia wide receiver Colbie Young posted a 4.49-second 40-yard dash at the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine and registered a top tracking speed of 19.72 miles per hour, the fastest mark among wideouts at the event. (sports.yahoo.com) Young finished the 2025 season with 26 receptions for 358 yards and one touchdown across eight games for Georgia. (espn.com) He suffered a fractured leg in the Oct. 18, 2025 game against Ole Miss and missed multiple games before returning to practice during Georgia’s College Football Playoff run. (steelersdepot.com) Young reached a plea agreement in his 2024 arrest, pleading no contest to a disorderly conduct charge and receiving 12 months of probation, a $500 fine and enrollment in a family-violence intervention program. (espn.com) Draft evaluators split on his projection: several outlets list Young as a mid-to-late Day 3 target or potential undrafted free agent, citing his size and contested‑catch traits but noting limited production and off‑field concerns. (nfldraftbuzz.com) Dallas enters the draft with two first‑round picks, extensive Combine meeting activity and a pre‑draft schedule of up to 30 formal visits — resources teams use to vet lower‑graded, high‑upside targets like Young.
