Going into the 2018 season, Jason Garrett’s seat might as well be a throne of fire 🔥, at least as far as the fan base is concerned. There are already discussions amongst Cowboys Nation about who should replace the head coach in the 2019 offseason, but we’re getting a bit ahead of ourselves, aren’t we? Let’s …
The Dallas Cowboys have completed the offseason part of their practices and are now eyeing the start of training camp in Oxnard, California on July 26th. The offseason stuff doesn’t necessarily show what a team thinks about a player near as much as training camp, so I won’t look at any losers because these practices have varying …
Zack Martin’s new contract became official last week as the four-time All-Pro received the long-term deal he’s been looking for. Per Todd Archer, his rookie fifth year option now turns into a seven-year deal for $93.41-million dollars with $40-million guaranteed (42.8%), including a $20-million dollar signing bonus. The total deal for All-Pro right guard Zack Martin is …
The other day, Marcus Mosher of Bleacher Report and the Locked on Cowboys Podcast posted a very interesting hypothetical: Late night #Cowboys hypothetical….Dallas has the most CB depth they've had in years. What would the compensation need to be for you to trade Jourdan Lewis? — Marcus Mosher (@Marcus_Mosher) June 12, 2018 Cowboys Nation had a …
The three weeks of “voluntary” OTAs have come to a close for the Dallas Cowboys, and this week starts the mandatory portion of the off-season practice program with minicamps getting started out at The Star. As the OTAs progressed, several players made cases to have their names etched on Jason Garrett’s 53-Man Roster when they open up …
David Irving has been a notable name throughout the offseason for the Dallas Cowboys, for both on the field and off the field headlines. First, his RFA tender had fans and analysts wondering just what the Cowboys would do with him. Many, myself included, thought placing anything lower than a first-round tender on the stud defensive tackle …
Dak Prescott has been a lightning rod of a topic this offseason with him set to enter the third year of his rookie contract. Typically, franchise quarterbacks on rookie deals will get their extension somewhere just before the last year of their rookie deal, which makes 2018 a very important year for the young signal caller. Let …
If 2017 was any indication, injuries can take a tremendous toll on a team. The Dallas Cowboys are no different. In the first half of the season they struggled to keep people healthy in their linebacking corp, losing Anthony Hitchens in the preseason and Sean Lee just a few games into the regular season, which forced Jaylon …
After years of building, drafting, and retooling, the Dallas Cowboys have completed their offensive line. And in the process, they’ve created a monster. The addition of Connor Williams in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft has reasserted the Dallas Cowboys offensive line as the best in football — and it may not be close. The …
The Dallas Cowboys offense looks very different in 2018 than it did at the beginning of the 2017 season. Gone are mainstays Dez Bryant (released) and Jason Witten (retired), and there’s been some minor turnover on the offensive line with Jonathan Cooper replaced by 2018 second round pick Connor Williams. Another Williams, Terrance, may soon be given …
One of my favorite things to read in the offseason and preseason is anything DallasCowboys.com writer and former NFL Scout Bryan Broaddus has to say about what transpired during these practices. He has an excellent perspective when discussing football. As a former scout turned Dallas Cowboys insider, his stuff is must-read material. It’s gold every single time. Definitely go …
With the Dallas Cowboys set to begin their Off-season Training Activities (OTAs), there are still some questions to answer about a team trying to improve on a 9-7 record from 2017. There has been a lot of noise this offseason from The Star related to the Cowboys transaction wire, but during the draft is where you saw …
Every offseason there are many players added to the Dallas Cowboys 90-man roster, and we painstakingly try to predict which 53 will actually stick come week one. Predicting the 53-man roster like Staff Writer Jess Haynie did recently can be a tricky proposition, because a lot of changes can happen and the bottom of the roster is …
When the Dallas Cowboys released Dez Bryant, the original thought was he’d have a pretty sizable market for his services. According to reports, however, there doesn’t seem to be a market for Dez Bryant at this point. Both Bleacher Report, and ProFootballTalk.com are reporting a general lack of interest in Dez Bryant by NFL teams, regardless of the …
The NFL Draft has come and gone and the Dallas Cowboys will begin gearing up for their rookie mini-camp, mini-camps, and OTAs as they inch closer to training camp. Though the most exciting part of the player acquisition process is completed, there is still work that can be done through free agency to address the holes on …
The Dallas Cowboys got a lot accomplished in the first two parts of player acquisition opportunities; the initial phase of free agency and the NFL Draft. However, they still have some holes to fill on the depth chart. Tight End With the imminent retirement of future Hall of Famer Jason Witten to join the Monday Night …
As the Dallas Cowboys made the difficult decision to release Dez Bryant, it ushered in the beginning of the overhaul of the wide receiver group. Much like they did in 2017 when they allowed Morris Claiborne, Brandon Carr, JJ Wilcox, and Barry Church to walk in free agency, and then proceeded to draft four defensive backs …
The Dallas Cowboys added some excellent pieces to the offensive side of the ball on day two of the NFL Draft by selecting University of Texas offensive lineman Connor Williams in the second round. They followed that up by taking Colorado State WR Michael Gallup in the third. Both players will immediately contribute to the offense …
With a hole to fill still on the wide receiver depth chart, the Dallas Cowboys held steady in the third round and drafted Colorado State’s Michael Gallup with the 81st pick. https://twitter.com/SeanMartinNFL/status/990048705070977024 Gallup was a very productive wide receiver at Colorado State who caught 21 touchdown passes over the last two years and averaged more than …
The second round of the NFL Draft couldn’t have started any worse for the Dallas Cowboys. As well as the first round fell to them at 19, at pick number 50, they had no such luck. By number 40, the top three guards Austin Corbett, Will Hernandez, and James Daniels and wide receiver Courtland Sutton, who …
The Dallas Cowboys made a pick that shouldn’t be a surprise, according to the latest mock drafts, though selecting Boise State middle linebacker Leighton Vander Esch was met with mixed reviews. By going with a linebacker in the first round, they put several other positions on hold, including guard, wide receiver, defensive line, and safety. As we get …
