All current Dallas Cowboys news, analysis, and commentary from Inside The Star.
When you look at the Dallas Cowboys roster, something that has really helped them the last few years is how good the backend of the defense has played. For the first time in probably three years or so, this could be a weakness. A weakness because not only did they lose Jourdan Lewis, but you have …
One year ago today, the Dallas Cowboys upgraded their linebackers by signing free agent Eric Kendrick to a one-year deal. Kendricks is now an unrestricted free agent. Will he be coming back to Dallas in 2025 or have the recent moves made by the Cowboys signaled his time here is at an end? That’s hard to …
In a not-so-surprising move aimed at bolstering their defensive lineup, the Dallas Cowboys have traded for a former first round pick to bolster their cornerback room. Dallas sends a 2025 5th round pick and a 2026 7th round pick to the Buffalo Bills in exchange for CB Kaiir Elam and a 2025 6th round pick. The …
The Dallas Cowboys’ blazing pace of signing free agents during the first two days is something Cowboys fans are not used to seeing. Through the first two days of free agency, the Cowboys have added three outside free agents and re-signed four of their own. This amount of free agency movement is usually not seen until …
The NFL free agency is in full force, and guess what the Dallas Cowboys have done? Pretty much nothing. They cleared up all that cap space last week and even had some of us fans thinking they may finally do something, and yet the streak of not signing any big time free agents is alive and …
For the last two seasons, linebacker DeMarvion Overshown has seen his season cut short to a knee injury. In 2023, the third-round pick of that year’s draft never made it out of preseason. He blew out his knee making a tackle in a preseason game in Seattle and was out for the year. In 2024, Overshown …
Micah Parsons was eligible for a contract extension last offseason, but he and the Dallas Cowboys couldn’t come to an agreement, and Parsons sat back and did not draw much attention. We saw them get the deals done with Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb, waiting until the last possible moment to do so, in turn made …
I’m sorry, I truly am, and I know that even this apology isn’t sufficient. I thought it would be different this time. When the Cowboys restructured so many deals, I thought they were doing so for a reason. Just last week I posted that maybe, finally, Jerry Jones had seen the light. But it appears I …
In a move that is sure to shake up the entire landscape of the NFL (insert sarcasm here), the Dallas Cowboys have signed their first outside free agent of the 2025 offseason. Former Denver Broncos RB Javonte Williams has agreed to terms with the Cowboys on a 1yr/$3M deal that could grow to $3.5M if he …
In a move that solidifies the future of their defensive backfield, the Dallas Cowboys have signed S Markquese Bell to a 3-year contract worth $9 million in total with $6.2M guaranteed. There are incentives laid into Bell’s contract that can earn him an extra $1.5M over the course of his contract. This extension is a testament …
The 2025 free agency period should see the Cowboys bring in a receiver to help the offense. The 2025 NFL Free Agency period begins on March 12th at 3 pm CST and the Dallas Cowboys should be shopping. The crop of free-agent wide receivers is deep this year, with several big-name free agents set to change …
The defensive line for the Dallas Cowboys is the one position room that currently has no margin for error coming into the 2025 season. After the starting four, with hybrid linebacker/edge player Micah Parsons, the position room is lacking in experience and talent. Dallas has already lost two defensive linemen who were on the roster last …
Zack Martin, the stalwart right guard for the Dallas Cowboys, has built a remarkable career in the NFL, achieving a level of consistency and dominance that few can rival. He announced his retirement from the NFL last week in an emotional press conference attended by many former Cowboys greats. Martin was a cornerstone of the offensive …
The Dallas Cowboys have been trying to return to the Super Bowl since their last appearance in 1996: a victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Unfortunately, not only have they not reached a Super Bowl since then, they also have not managed to advance past the Divisional round of the playoffs either. If they hope to do …
The Dallas Cowboys have remained mostly competitive over the past decade or so, only being bad enough to pick in the top 10 of the NFL draft once. It was that magical rookie season for both QB Dak Prescott and RB Ezekiel Elliott where Zeke was chosen fourth overall. For the most part, as long as …
Former Cowboys Wide Receiver Michael Gallup made headlines on Friday. Per his agent, Kevin Robinson, the 29-year-old veteran is going to return to the NFL less than one year after his sudden retirement. Gallup, a staple of Dallas’ offense for six years, was cut by the team last March. It came down to money and availability, …
Well, after a very busy week from the Dallas Cowboys front office, I thought it would be a good time to reset and bring everything back down to earth and understand the makings of it all. Although they finally did a handful of great things by signing Osa Odighizuwa and restructuring Dak Prescott’s deal and wide …
As the Dallas Cowboys prepare for the 2025 NFL season, the need for strategic additions in free agency is becoming increasingly apparent. In Stephen Jones’ own words, it’s time to get “selectively aggressive” with their player additions. What exactly do they mean by selectively aggressive? To me, it means they need to identify their biggest needs …
To say Mazi Smith was a surprise first-round pick in 2023 is as much an understatement as saying he has been a bust so far isn’t. As the top pick of the year, Smith was expected to step in and be a full-time starter on the defensive line. The team needed a defensive tackle that could …
With the new cap space and one move, the Cowboys can help CeeDee Lamb take his game to the next level. How fun would watching the Cowboys’ offense with another top-tier wide receiver be? Fans were spoiled when CeeDee Lamb and Amari Cooper called Dallas home. Once Amari Cooper was moved, Lamb was the only receiver …
As we move closer to the NFL draft and the official start of the offseason, that allows teams to trade and so on, a few solid players have either been released, traded or requested a trade. The Dallas Cowboys front office has surprisingly been active already and made a few really decent things happen on Tuesday …
