Today’s NFL is predicated on high-powered offenses and scoring a plethora of points.

Even if the Cowboys were to snag Alabama’s …
Although the Dallas Cowboys had a rough 2020 with a laundry list of injuries that led to a 6-10 record, CeeDee Lamb was a major bright spot.

The Dallas Cowboys have a high-powered offense. Now, their focus in the upcoming NFL Draft will be to upgrade a defensive unit that was in the bottom third of the league in 2020 and gave up the most points in history (473). An area that the Cowboys need to improve the most is the defensive tackle …
The Dallas Cowboys were atrocious against the run in 2020, with only the Houston Texans being worse.

Virginia Tech’s Caleb Farley is one of the best cornerbacks in the 2021 NFL Draft and a player that the Dallas Cowboys could use in their defensive backfield.

The Dallas Cowboys have 10 picks in the 2021 NFL Draft. It’s no secret that defense will be the primary focus, but the Cowboys shouldn’t ignore the offensive side of the ball, especially the trenches.

Aldon Smith made a triumphant return to the NFL in 2020.

Earlier this week, it was reported that the Cowboys …
