The Cowboys select Alabama G Tyler Booker with the 12th pick in the 2025 NFL draft. The Cowboys took Booker, a guard, with the 12th selection in the NFL draft Thursday night, marking the third time in the past four years that they have used their top pick on an offensive lineman. In 2022, the Cowboys took Tyler Smith, and last year they selected Tyler Guyton. The Cowboys went from 1981 to 2011 without drafting an offensive lineman in the first round when they took Smith in the first round. Booker is the highest offensive lineman the Cowboys have taken since selecting Smith at No.
