Will Cowboys Continue to Waste a Roster Spot on a FB in 2019?

Will Cowboys Continue to Waste a Roster Spot on a FB in 2019?

Fullbacks are a dying breed in the NFL. The position has continued to be phased out around the league with only a handful of teams still employing them. The Dallas Cowboys just so happen to be one of those teams who still value the position, but that could be changing with Jamize Olawale now a free …

7-Round Dallas Cowboys Mock Draft: Pre-Combine Edition

I thought it would be a good idea to get out another 7-round Dallas Cowboys mock draft before the 2019 NFL Scouting Combine kicks off next week. Not only will the Combine shakeup a lot of people’s big boards and draft rankings, but it will also be the first opportunity a lot of us will get …

Should Dallas Cowboys Make Offensive Tackle a Draft Priority?

Should the Dallas Cowboys Make Offensive Tackle a Draft Priority?

The 2019 NFL Draft will be an interesting one for the Dallas Cowboys. From the outside looking in it doesn’t seem as if they have any clear “needs” that need to be addressed. But, if you were to dive deeper into their roster you’d probably discover things might not be as stable as we’d like to …

Could Loaded FA Safety Class Drive Down Earl Thomas' Price Tag?

Could Loaded FA Safety Market Drive Down Earl Thomas’ Value?

It’s no secret the Dallas Cowboys and Earl Thomas share a mutual interest in one another. Thomas has publicly stated his desire to join America’s Team and the Cowboys did their darndest to make that happen last offseason. Nothing ever materialized a year ago, but it’s looking as if the stars have finally aligned and a union …

3 Potential Day 2 Tight End Prospects for the Dallas Cowboys

3 Potential Day 2 Tight End Prospects for the Dallas Cowboys

By now it’s no secret the Dallas Cowboys don’t have a first-round draft pick in the upcoming 2019 NFL Draft. The Amari Cooper trade took care of that, meaning sitting through the entire Day 1 could be a little tiresome for us fans. But, Day 2 of the draft could get really interesting for the Cowboys, …

Should Cowboys Try to Pry RB Duke Johnson Away From Cleveland?

Should the Cowboys Try to Pry RB Duke Johnson Away From Cleveland?

Running Back Duke Johnson was once considered one of the favorites to replace DeMarco Murray. It was believed at the time he was the Dallas Cowboys target with their second-round pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, but unfortunately the Cleveland Browns beat them to the punch. The Cowboys instead had to settle for Randy Gregory, a …

After sitting through the roller coaster ride that was the Dallas Cowboys 2018 season, we could surprisingly be looking at more of the same now that the 2019 Cowboys offseason is underway.

2019 NFL Combine: 5 Snubs the Dallas Cowboys Could be Interested in

The invite list of all 338 participants who will be competing in the 2019 NFL Combine dropped yesterday. I was curious, so I scoured over every single invitee and was really surprised at some of the names not listed. Not everybody can compete in the “Underwear Olympics” of course, but there always seems to be a …

5 Pre-draft Moves Cowboys Should Consider Making in Free Agency 4

5 Pre-draft Moves Cowboys Should Consider Making in Free Agency

It’s a lot more fun to speculate about the NFL draft and which players the Dallas Cowboys could be interested in, but today I want to talk about free agency. These players aren’t shiny new toys, but for the most part they are proven commodities and teams pretty much know what they’re getting. It’s usually the …

Matt Miller's Post-Super Bowl 7-Round Cowboys Mock Draft

Matt Miller’s Post-Super Bowl 7-Round Cowboys Mock Draft

Matt Miller, one of my favorite “draft analysts”, released his first Post-Super Bowl 7-round Mock Draft yesterday for all 32 teams. As a fan of Miller’s, and the Dallas Cowboys, I was curious to see who he chose for America’s Team. I have to admit, I wasn’t too excited to see the players he selected. Luckily, we are …

Cowboys Draft Target: North Dakota State RB Bruce Anderson

Film Room: Bruce Anderson Could be the Lightning to Zeke’s Thunder

The Dallas Cowboys can’t continue to play with fire in 2019 the same way they did last season. They need to find someone who can lighten the load on Ezekiel Elliott’s shoulders, because he is the engine that drives the entire offense. If he were to go down with an injury it would be catastrophic. As …

2019 7-Round Cowboys Mock Draft for the Super Bowl Weekend

It may be Super Bowl weekend, but I find myself not very excited about this year’s matchup between the New Orleans Saints Los Angeles Rams and New England Patriots. The fact the Rams got in on a technicality has kind of tainted the game for me and believe it or not I absolutely can’t stand the Patriots. …

With David Irving's Return, Cowboys Defense Could Be Even Scarier

Dallas Cowboys Shouldn’t Part Ways With DT David Irving Just Yet

The Dallas Cowboys have some very interesting decisions to make about a few of their players who will be entering free agency this offseason. What to do about Wide Receiver Cole Beasley has grabbed most of the headlines, but I think we might need to turn our attention to the Cowboys talented yet troubled defensive tackle, …

Cowboys Draft: Time for Dallas to Invest More in Their Defensive Line

Upgrading the DT Position Should be an Offseason Priority for Cowboys

When it comes to specific positions the Dallas Cowboys should consider upgrading this offseason, defensive tackle should be at the top of their list. They have ignored investing much in the way of draft picks or money on the interior of their defensive line for years now, but it’s time for that to change. Luckily, 2019 …

Could Cowboys Draft one of Michael Gallup's Former Teammates?

2 Colorado State WRs Who Could Follow Michael Gallup to Dallas

The Dallas Cowboys couldn’t be happier with the way Michael Gallup performed during his rookie season, which could prompt them into returning to his alma mater for more receiver help this year. Luckily, Colorado State has a couple of wide receivers that could pique their interest. Colorado State isn’t a powerhouse school who typically produces a …
