Can the Cowboys get enough production from former 1st-round pick?

If the Dallas Cowboys front office does something well, it has been drafting talent in the first round and hitting a home run most of the time.

Injuries are clouding the defensive backs’ future in 2025

While it seems the defensive line and the linebacker units have solidified the Dallas Cowboys’ defensive front seven, there is a concern in the defensive backfield.

Can the Cowboys’ linebackers hold the fort until Agent 0 returns?

The latest injury update on Cowboys’ linebacker DeMarvion Overshown has Agent 0 on pace for a mid-season return. That puts a lot of pressure on the remaining eight linebackers on the depth chart.

Is the 2025 season Mazi Smith’s last chance?

The Dallas Cowboys’ decision in the second round to draft another edge player in Donavan Ezeiruaku overshadowed an immediate challenge for defensive tackle Mazi Smith.

The Cowboys’ LB Room: A sudden position of strength

Over the past few seasons, the Dallas Cowboys’ linebacker corps has been riddled with injuries and inconsistency.

Will this Cowboys rookie duo take over the offense?

One thing is clear coming out of the 2025 Dallas Cowboys rookie class: the running back battle is on.

Cowboys have too many cooks in the offensive line kitchen

With the first round selection of guard Tyler Booker in last week’s draft, along with Ajani Cornelius in the sixth round, the Dallas Cowboys have 15 players on the offensive line on the roster.

Cowboys’ choices have left Dak Prescott with few targets

The Dallas Cowboys currently have just two reliable receivers for Dak Prescott to throw the ball to this fall.

Post-draft Cowboys have 3rd-best RB room in NFC East

Post-draft Cowboys have 3rd-best RB room in NFC East

After the first-round selection of offensive lineman Tyler Booker in last week’s draft, conventional wisdom had the Dallas Cowboys focusing on the run game in 2025.

Cowboys’ New Enforcer: Heir to Zack Martin in 2025

The Dallas Cowboys made a high-impact move for an enforcer in the 2025 NFL Draft by selecting Tyler Booker, the rugged offensive lineman from Alabama, with the 12th overall pick.

Dallas improved this position without using a draft pick

Dallas got 1 thing right in the draft on Saturday

After fumbling, stumbling, bumbling, and reaching their way through the first two days of the NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys got one thing right on the third and final day. They didn’t draft a tight end. After an overall middle-grade draft, we’ll take whatever victories we can get. See, Ron, I can write something positive about …

Cowboys repeat same mistakes of past drafts

With glaring needs at starting running back and starting wide receiver, the Dallas Cowboys did what they always do. They fumbled the draft. For the third straight year.
