Cowboys Nation is getting excited about the possibilities for their offense in 2019, and while most of that excitement circles around former offensive coordinator Scott Linehan’s departure, some of the new offensive weapons are intriguing as well. Right at the top of that list of new players deserving excitement is running back Tony Pollard. The rookie …
Last week, Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett made headlines with some quotes about the return of Jason Witten. Neither Garrett nor Witten tend to make headlines with their words often, but the two combined to do so with a quote this week. “Yeah, absolutely. He’s been excited about every part of it ever since I …
Offensive lineman Connor Williams had himself an interesting start to his young career. The second round pick was expected to be a plug-and-play guard for the Cowboys, earning the starting left guard spot from just about the first day of training camp. The results from Williams’ play were mixed, however. At moments Connor Williams looked like …
The Cowboys opening of voluntary OTAs came with some serious excitement from football-starved fans. But as we all know, these workouts are just about meaningless in terms of storylines for the upcoming season. I say “just about meaningless” because there are some storylines which matter, though. Travis Frederick’s return, of course, is one of those storylines. After …
2018 seemed like the beginning of a new era. A defensive era. For the first time in years the Cowboys were able to consistently lean on their defense during games, staying alive even as their offense sputtered and limped through stretches early in the season. The defense was downright prolific some weeks. They carried the Cowboys …
After having his fifth year option exercised for the 2019 season, cornerback Byron Jones enters a contract year this Fall. Jones inarguably had the best year of his career in 2018: earning not only his first Pro Bowl selection but also Second Team All Pro honors for his performance. Doing it all without an impressive stat …
Overall, Cowboys Nation feels to be in a positive mood during this year’s offseason. Despite early angst over lack of action at the start of free agency, and concern over the Cowboys’ draft strategy, most within the fan base seem to have high, yet realistic, hopes for the 2019 season. Most seem to believe the NFC …
The 2019 season is right around the corner for the Dallas Cowboys, with OTA’s and training camp getting ready to kickoff in the coming weeks/months. Cowboys linebacker Jaylon Smith made the most of his offseason, going back to Notre Dame to finish out his college degree. Smith is set to graduate from Notre Dame this Saturday, …
When the Cowboys offense sputtered early on in 2018, it was a combination of lack of weapons and lack of creativity which received the blame. But after trading for Amari Cooper and going “all-in” on the Dak Prescott era, the Cowboys decided they’d done enough to reasonably improve their offensive weapons. It then became about bringing …
While the debate around whether or not the Cowboys should extend Dak Prescott rages among fans, the coaching staff sure sounds like they’ve made up their minds about the young quarterback. Prescott will have a new quarterback coach this season, as former Cowboys backup QB Jon Kitna returns to Dallas in this coaching role. Kitna spoke …
According to TMZ Sports, Cowboys defensive lineman Tyrone Crawford is being charged for his involvement in a March bar fight. He is being charged with one count of misdemeanor unlawful assembly and could face up to 60 days in jail if found guilty. https://twitter.com/ProFootballTalk/status/1128237587443920896 Crawford has not plead guilty to the charge, and will appear in …
The Cowboys spent much of the third day of the 2019 NFL Draft re-building their running back depth. First, by selecting Memphis running back Tony Pollard, the Cowboys got their “versatile” receiving back who should add a dynamic element to Kellen Moore’s offense. Then, in the seventh round, the Cowboys dipped back into the Ohio State …
With mini-camp starting up and training camp right around the corner, the Cowboys are starting to sign their 2019 draft selections to their rookie deals. The first domino to fall? Fourth round running back Tony Pollard. Tony Pollard became the first Cowboys rookie to sign this Friday, inking his traditional four year rookie contract right before …
Much of the energy fans have spent discussing the Cowboys quarterback situation has centered around whether or not to pay starter Dak Prescott the money which the market dictates he deserves. But those arguments are basically white noise at this point, as it becomes clearer by the day that Prescott is going to be a Cowboy …
Dallas went into the 2019 NFL Draft with the fanbase expecting them to draft according to a particular strategy. Targeting safeties early in the draft would be priority number one, and by bringing in prospects like Taylor Rapp and Juan Thornhill as pre-draft visitors, this seemed to be the exact plan Dallas would put in place. …
Throughout the post draft media process, the Cowboys’ decision makers have been adamant that they found multiple draft-able players in undrafted free agency this year. Each of which, of course, will have an opportunity to compete for a roster or practice squad spot this summer. One of those players who almost certainly had a draft-able grade …
The debate over which players the Cowboys should prioritize during free agency over the next two years has been hotly contested, but Stephen Jones is making the team’s intentions very clear. After picking up running back Ezekiel Elliott’s fifth year option to fill out his rookie contract, Stephen Jones joined the Pro Football Talk podcast to …
As Cowboys fans, we are lucky to get the local coverage we get from the official team website. DallasCowboys.com’s The Draft Show provides the best content around during draft season, and once again killed it with their season finale episode. David Helman, Dane Brugler, and Bryan Broaddus interviewed the Cowboys VP of Player Personnel Will McClay, …
Every draft season, there are a handful of players that are constantly mocked to the Cowboys. A few years ago, it seemed like everyone linked the Cowboys and Dak Prescott in the fourth round. Last year, it was wide receiver Michael Gallup on day two. This year, just about everyone expected the Cowboys to target Kentucky …
What. It’s okay to admit that was your reaction when the Cowboys third round pick was announced last Friday night, and the world learned Penn State’s Connor McGovern was the newest Dallas Cowboy. Going offensive line that early in the draft was an upset that nearly no one predicted, but one which gives the Cowboys flexibility …
The Cowboy 2019 draft strategy was a bit off the wall compared to what was expected of them. Where most thought they’d address safety early on, they instead waited until the sixth round to do so. Where most thought they would prioritize a multitude of positions over offensive line due to their current depth in the …
