in deep EDGE class Blogging The Boys will take a look at some of the NFL Draft prospects that will be in the 2018 NFL Draft class. This early in the season Authentic Sean Lee Jersey , it’s impossible to know the Cowboys draft position, so we’ll look at a variety of prospects.Starting last September, we began taking a look at a different potential NFL Draft prospect each week throughout college football season and through the draft process. We saw stocks rise and stocks plummet during the series. The first edition of the series this year takes us across the DFW area, to the TCU Horned Frogs. The top-15 ranked Frogs are gearing up for a clash with the top-5 ranked Ohio State Buckeyes in, oddly enough, AT&T Stadium. Needless to say, there will be no shortage of scouts with their eyes on this early season battle.Gary Patterson has been known for building defenses filled with athletes that are both big and fast. This season is no different, as Patterson’s squad features a talented front seven built to make TCU a contender in the Big 12 in 2018. Let’s look at one prospect that may potentially grab the attention of those within the Dallas Cowboys.Ben Banogu — EDGE, TCU Horned Frogs6-foot-4249SeniorTim Heitman-USA TODAY SportsOne of the more intriguing EDGE prospects in the 2019 crop plays his football about an hour away from the Cowboys headquarters in Frisco. Ben Banogu, a lengthy 6-foot-4 EDGE, burst onto the college football scene en route to recording just under 10 sacks as a junior.Before Banogu emerged as one of the better pass rushers in college football with TCU, the McKinney, Texas, native and Prosper High School almnus began his career in Louisiana with the ULM Warhawks. The former two-star prospect took a redshirt during his first season in The Boot, but splashed as one of the team’s better players the very next season.As a redshirt freshman, Banogu earned a starting position along ULM’s defensive line. From there, he became a nightmare for opposing offensive lines. Banogu started every game for the Warhawks, recording 45 tackles Youth Tyron Smith Jersey , 14.5 tackles-for-loss, and five sacks. He was named the Sun Belt Conference’s Newcomer of the Year for his impressive debut season. That was not the last honor he would go on to earn.Following his big season with Louisiana-Monroe, the Texas native opted to transfer to a bigger school that happened to be closer to where he went to high school. NCAA rules forced him to sit out the 2016 season, but he only improved by the time he stepped back onto the field. Banogu earned the starting spot at LDE for the Horned Frogs before he ever took a snap with his new team. As a result, he put together a season that earned him numerous honors and put him on the radar of NFL scouts.Banogu’s first season in purple saw him take the Big 12 by storm. The ULM transfer started in all 14 games for Gary Patterson’s squad, racking up 55 total tackles in addition to career-highs in TFLs with 16.5 and in sacks with 8.5. Offensive tackles had no answers and quarterbacks grew tired of seeing No. 15 in their backfield. TCU’s star EDGE earned accolades such as the Big 12 Newcomer of the Year and first team all-conference.Through two weeks in 2017, Banogu has recorded two tackles, one TFL, a sack, and he forced a fumble.Where does Banogu stack up among a deep EDGE — and defensive line in general — class? Let’s take a look.The elite EDGE prospects in the upcoming draft class that immediately come to mind include the likes of Ohio State’s Nick Bosa (yes, Joey Bosa’s younger brother — who some believe may be better than the 2016 Defensive Rookie of the Year), Mississippi State’s Montez Sweat, and Florida State’s Brian Burns, to name just a few. Banogu has a chance to move up to that top tier with a strong senior campaign.In fact, last December, ESPN’s Todd McShay had Banogu slotted in the first-round of one of his mock drafts for 2018.Take that for what it is worth, but it is worth noting that the TCU defender has received some day one hype already. McShay is not the only one high on Banogu, as draft analyst Jonah Tuls had this to say:Three PlaysHere are three plays that demonstrate what Ben Banogu can do. On this first clip http://www.cowboysauthorizedshops.com/authentic-demarcus-lawrence-jersey , Banogu — playing in his second game with TCU — flies by Arkansas’ left tackle, forcing a stripping the ball out of quarterback Austin Allen’s hand. Banogu finished the contest with 13 total tackles, one TFL, a sack, and a forced fumble.This next clip shows Banogu again disrupting the play and knocking the ball out of the quarterback’s hand. Banogu is lined up on the top of the screen against right tackle Bobby Evans — a good player in his own right. TCU decides to bring their talented defender inside on a stunt and Banogu blows by OU’s center Erick Wren. As a result, Banogu knocks the ball out of Baker Mayfield’s hand and nearly causes a turnover.The last clips hows Banogu’s ability to recognize and dissect a play. As he sees Iowa State setting up a quick shovel pass to gain some easy yards, Banogu steps right by the Cyclone’s tackle and wraps the ball carrier up for a loss.Two TraitsScary athleticismExplosive speedOne SentenceBen Banogu is certainly not a finished product — especially when defending the run — but his unique length and speed makes him a prime candiadate to be a late first or early second round selection come April 2019.*All stats courtesy of sports-reference.com. DALLAS COWBOYS (9-7)New faces: LB Leighton Vander Esch, G Connor Williams, WR Allen Hurns, WR/KR Tavon Austin, WR Michael Gallup, LB Joe Thomas, DT Jihad Ward, T Cameron Fleming, TE Dalton Schultz, WR Deonte Thompson.Key losses: TE Jason Witten, WR Dez Bryant, LB Anthony Hitchens Maliek Collins Jersey , CB Orlando Scandrick, WR Brice Butler, WR/KR Ryan Switzer, TE James Hanna, RB Alfred Morris.Strengths: Running game with Ezekiel Elliott, now free of suspension that loomed last year and had to be served halfway through season. Cowboys want passing game that's in transition to feed off rushing attack. Offensive line still strong but facing big question with center Travis Frederick battling Guillain-Barre syndrome. Condition that affects nervous system has sidelined four-time Pro Bowler indefinitely. Defense looked stout in preseason and returns DE DeMarcus Lawrence, who tied for second in NFL with 14陆 sacks last season.Weaknesses: Safety dangerously thin with move of Byron Jones to cornerback and hamstring injury that could sideline Xavier Woods at least for opener. Cowboys fans have constant eye on Earl Thomas holdout in Seattle. Former Texas standout has made no secret of desire to play for Dallas. Receiving corps largely unproven after retirement of Witten, release of Bryant. Gallup, third-round pick, has looked good in preseason. Cole Beasley, dean of Dallas group, was strong in camp. Cowboys have high hopes that Hurns can have impact as newcomer.Fantasy Players To Watch: Elliott is new Tony Romo for Cowboys as player they can't live without and best fantasy option. Former Ohio State star and 2016 NFL rushing champ as rookie won't be around long in drafts. Backup Rod Smith could get some TDs while Elliott rests. Will be difficult to pinpoint best options at receiver before season starts.Vegas Says: Super Bowl 30-1. Over/under wins 8.5.Expectations: Cowboys counting on bounce-back year from QB Dak Prescott, who slipped in second season and missed playoffs after winning NFL Offensive Rookie of Year award for 13-3 team. Missing playoffs again will raise questions about future of coach Jason Garrett, who has reached postseason twice in seven full seasons. Formula for Cowboys has often been offense-first in 10 years with Garrett on staff (three-plus as offensive coordinator). Could be defense-first year for Dallas with Lawrence, linebacker Sean Lee and host of promising young players, including CB Chidobe Awuzie. Cowboys expect to challenge Super Bowl champion Eagles in NFC East.
