The Dallas Cowboys have just one game left on the schedule this season. The team will face off against the Washington Commanders in a finale that no one wishes was the end.

However, it is what it is. Now, the franchise has to look ahead to the future, which means it is now draft talk season.

To get fired up for the 2025 NFL Draft, Cowboys fans should check out some of the college football action on New Year's Eve.

The one player on every Cowboys fan's wishlist is Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty. Jeanty will meet Penn State in the College Football Playoff quarterfinals. It should be an exciting test for someone that everyone in Dallas hopes is with the franchise next season.

Will Johnson CB, Michigan

The Cowboys are in desperate need of depth at cornerback next season, and Michigan cornerback Will Johnson could solve that issue. Michigan will meet Alabama in a rematch of last season's College Football Playoff semi-final. However, the stakes are a little lower this time.

Tyler Warren TE, Penn State

Sure, the Cowboys have Jake Ferguson at tight end. However, adding someone like Tyler Warren, if he is available, would be a no-brainer. Warren is an absolute unit with sure hands. I don't want to make this comparison, but I see a lot of Jason Witten in Warren.
