Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones (above) and his crew will be in the Cowboys' draft "war room" tonight, likely early, for the 2024 NFL Draft. The draft technically takes place from Detroit, Michigan, but will be happening from sites all across the nation, and live on national television. We'll be live on thefootballbeat.com. Here's our mock draft, if you want to see how ETBlitz.com editor / publisher Mitch Lucas thinks things could go down. He had 11 of the 32 first-round picks correct last year.

Brownwood native Matt McCrane hit a 49-yard field goal for D.C. to complete a comeback and allow the Defenders to beat Arlington, 29-28, a shocker, considering the Defenders were down by 10 (28-18) with under two minutes left. It was the second straight week that happened in the UFL: San Antonio did it to Memphis last Saturday. (Photo by DENNIS JACOBS - ETBLITZ.COM)
