With less than a week to go before the NFL draft begins Thursday, Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones weighed in on potential draft targets during a Friday interview with G-Bag Nation on 105. 3 The Fan. The Cowboys, of course, hold the No. 4 overall draft pick, their highest selection since picking No. 1 in 1991.

On Ohio State defensive end Joey Bosa:

"He's just one solid football player. He's all about the game. He's certainly been trained the right way. His father, his uncles were all top-notch NFL football players. My understanding is the younger brother is one heck of a football player. Football runs in that family through and through. He's certainly one of the best players in this draft, and he'll certainly get strong consideration from us. I do think he'll be one of the top players picked, as he deserves to be. He's a great football player."

On where defensive back Jalen Ramsey, of Florida State, could play in the secondary:

"He can do both. He's got a little bit of Byron Jones in him, who is able as we know to line up all over the place for us. Lined up at corner, lined up at free safety, lined up covering tight ends in the nickel. He's very versatile. I think Jalen's probably a little bit the same way. He's probably a better corner than Byron is a corner. But he's another one that's one of the best football players in this draft. He's got great football intangibles, another great football player that will be picked high in this draft."

Jones also noted that Eastern Kentucky pass rusher Noah Spence remains on the Cowboys' draft board despite previous off-field issues.

Jones wouldn't comment on the reported expected four-game suspension of defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence for violating the league's drug policy, but was asked suspensions of multiple Cowboys players could affect how they select players in the draft.

"That's a hard thing for people to get their hands around, it's just hard to know when someone's going to make the wrong turn or hit the wrong bump in terms of doing it once they get at our level. It's obviously so important to us in drafting guys with the right character but sometimes things happen that are unforeseen. Right now, I totally get that it may not look like it in terms of the mishaps we've had here, but it's certainly very important to us and something we'll continue to evaluate and try to be better."
