Top NFL Draft prospect Steve Avila hopes to stay in Dallas and meet Cowboys

Top NFL draft prospect Steve Avila certainly wouldn't mind blocking Dak Prescott and Tony Pollard next season... telling TMZ Sports "it would be, honestly, like, the best" if the Cowboys would pick him next month. /p>

The former TCU star offensive lineman, originally from Arlington, Texas, has played all of his home football games his entire life in the Dallas area...and he says if that could continue in the NFL, he would be delighted.

And, it looks like there's a decent chance of anything going...the Cowboys need a new left guard after losing Connor McGovern in free agency. They also have the No. 26 pick in the first round, just when the draft is where Avila is expected to be selected.

The 23-year-old will soon have the opportunity to tell America's Team about his feelings on the matter...he actually has an interview with the Cowboys in just days.

Of course, Avila says that while it would be a dream to wear the silver and blue, he's open to everyone...and has recently met several teams, including the Falcons, Commanders, Jets and Lions.

As for when he'll be drafted, Avila says he expects to be taken in the first two rounds next month...slamming anyone who thinks he'll drop to third.

"I'm a humble person, I hate talking about myself," he said. "But when I see this, I'm like 'Dude'."
