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 …
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.

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 …
You can be forgiven if you are constantly pinching yourself to make sure you are awake and Jerry Jones is actually making solid decisions about the Dallas Cowboys. During the recently concluded NFL Combine, Jones was strangely quiet. Not once holding court with reporters and uttering those dreadful words: “We’re all in!” Then came news that …
How do you spell stability on the Dallas Cowboys defensive line? It’s as easy as this: Osa Odighizuwa. Since being drafted out of UCLA in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft, Odighizuwa has been a stable presence. He has started 51 straight games and 63 of the 67 he has played in over four …
Free agency would be a great avenue to take when filling the three most significant needs this Dallas Cowboys team has on the field.

The Dallas Cowboys had a busy Tuesday afternoon in the first week of March, a productive one for the first time in many years. The day started by signing defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa to a four-year, $80 million deal that includes $58 million guaranteed and a $20 million signing bonus. In four NFL seasons, DT Osa …
After what felt like a year-long wait, the Dallas Cowboys and defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa reached agreement Tuesday on a four-year, $80 million deal that includes $58 million guaranteed and a $20 million signing bonus. Odighizuwa’s agent Sam Leaf Ireifej negotiated and confirmed the deal. Let me start by saying, I thought this deal would be …
DeMarcus Lawrence will become an unrestricted free agent this month. Right now, that is really the only thing we know for sure.

The Dallas Cowboys have finally begun talks regarding extending Micah Parsons. Having hopefully learned their lesson about waiting overlong after bungling both CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott’s extensions. Both missteps cost the team several million dollars. Parsons has indicated that he’s less concerned with be the highest paid at his position and more with fielding a …
The Dallas Cowboys of old were no strangers to high-profile players. There was a time when Owner/GM Jerry Jones loved to gamble, and salary cap woes weren’t a thing at all. Don’t get me wrong. I’m glad that the team has gained some stability on that front, even though I feel like they over corrected and …

His bowling game may not matter and there may be ulterior …
In the chaotic mess that was the Dallas Cowboys’ 2024 season, there was one unit that ran as smooth as silk. While the offense struggled, even before Dak Prescott was lost for the year after eight games, and the defense was inconsistent, the kicking game was nearly perfect. Brandon Aubrey hit a career-long, 65-yard field goal …
The future of several Dallas Cowboys’ offensive line backups seems to be coming into focus. Stephen Jones’ recent comments regarding Brock Hoffman possibly starting at center with Cooper Beebe replacing Zack Martin at guard make sense. Still to be determined is whether Tyler Guyton stays at left tackle, or replaces Terence Steele at right tackle. If …
The Dallas Cowboys’ offensive line was a major asset for many years, and last year, fans were left trying to figure out what went wrong. So, to fix the issue, the front office revamped the coaching staff, hiring some of the greatest offensive lineman coaches at the NFL and collegiate levels. First came the new Offensive …
There is a five-year starter on the Dallas Cowboys’ offensive line who shouldn’t approach the 2025 season with any high level of comfort.

Despite that fact, the Cowboys signed him to a five-year, $86.8 million contract extension prior to …
