The Dallas Cowboys will stay pat in this 2025 mock draft and there will not be any trades. The Dallas Cowboys rarely trade up and the most likely outcome would be a trade down if a trade were to happen. The draft strategy at this point is anyone’s guess, as the front office is in the …
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, may the Lord bless him and keep him — far from us — just can’t leave well enough alone. He’s been itching to expand the NFL to include teams overseas for years. Now he’s looking to tweak the regular season schedule once again. The league expanded the schedule to 17 games, beginning …
The Dallas Cowboys could get more offensive after the team moved on from Head Coach Mike McCarthy after the front office and coach could not agree on the team’s future. In the aftermath of the move, the media has been predicting several coaches who could take over the job. Ben Johnson, Aaron Glenn, Bill Belichick, and …
Now it’s time for serious football as the Divisional round of the NFL playoffs gets underway this weekend. Last week’s wild card round saw only one “road” team win.

After a wild 48 hours, I wanted to change gears and shift toward the NFL and dive into a few players I think could help the Dallas Cowboys that could be picked outside of the first round. Now with Mike McCarthy gone and no word on who the next head man will be in Dallas, this …
The Dallas Cowboys’ ineptness will lead to a coach that Jerry Jones has been enamored with for years. This coach has a history with the Cowboys, but it is not as a coach or former player; it is a connection, nonetheless. As we look back on the past coaches, one area all the former coaches lacked …
It was a tale of two conferences in the wild card round this past weekend. Especially when it came to my picks. In the AFC the three division-winning home teams cruised to relatively easy wins. The NFC was a touch different. Two favored teams fell short of advancing to the divisional round in the NFC playoffs. …
The Dallas Cowboys have numerous needs in the upcoming NFL Draft, and because of this, they can wait to draft a position with multiple talents coming out of college. The Cowboys need wide receivers, offensive linemen, defensive linemen, and running backs, but a premium position needs to be the number one priority in the 2025 draft. …
Well, since the Dallas Cowboys aren’t around in the postseason this year, let’s take a crack at picking this weekend’s wild card round winners, shall we? While the Cowboys will be watching at home on the couch, like the rest of us, there are some related interests in play. First, there are a few former Dallas …
It would seem difficult to analyze the Dallas Cowboys’ draft strategy over the last few years to see what tendencies they have. However, the team’s front office has been steadfast on several draft strategies. Jerry Jones and company are creatures of habit. They do not like change and will do whatever it takes to make themselves …
The Dallas Cowboys’ season has come to a close with a narrow defeat at the hands of the Washington Commanders to finish with a 7-10 record. Nobody expected the Cowboys to fall as far as they did. They are just a year removed from their third straight 12-win season. I expected the Cowboys to take the …
The Dallas Cowboys have a recently named award winner in their linebacker core. This linebacker won an award, not many people have probably heard of, but it is a player who worked hard to overcome challenges at the beginning of his career. This news is some of the only good news for the Dallas Cowboys organization, …
The 2024 NFL regular season has come to a close and, thanks to a 7-10 record, the Dallas Cowboys’ season is over for good after failing to qualify for the playoffs. Dallas’ playoff hopes were dashed for good after the Washington Commanders upset the Philadelphia Eagles in week 16. Playing just for pride over the final …
The Dallas Cowboys head coach search will begin soon, as America’s Team season ended with a late loss to the Washington Commanders. Mike McCarthy, the mercurial coach, is still under contract until January 14th but may find greener pastures elsewhere in the league. Where does that leave the Dallas Cowboys? For starters, if Mike McCarthy does …
The NFC East closed the books on the 2024 season with two surprisingly close games. For half of the division, Sunday was the last time the teams will take the field until this fall. The other half still has work to do. Unsurprisingly, the teams with games yet to play emerged on top Sunday afternoon. But …
Now that the Dallas Cowboys have one game left in the 2024 season, and no playoffs to worry about, the best thing we can do is look forward to the NFL draft in April. That said, a lot of talk has gone around about whom this team might take with their projected 13th overall pick. Anyone …
During Monday night’s Lions-49ers game, former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman set off a firestorm. The three-time Super Bowl champion and Hall of Famer weighed in on this year’s NFL MVP chase. Conventional wisdom has it between Buffalo’s Josh Allen and Baltimore’s Lamar Jackson. Aikman chose a different option. Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow. His remarks …
The Dallas Cowboys moved up in the draft after a blowout loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. From the second quarter of the Philadelphia game, the Cowboys looked like a team on the ropes, showing some needs that may not be apparent to some. The game showed that the Cowboys need another elite pass rusher opposite Micah …
As the 2024 season prepared to get underway, most pundits had the Philadelphia Eagles winning the NFC East. Including one or two charged with covering the Dallas Cowboys. The Eagles were missing their starting quarterback. They would be forced to bring in their third-string quarterback for an injured Kenny Pickett before the game was over. And …
The Dallas Cowboys were one of the best teams at wheeling and dealing in the early 90’s, but the trend stopped. What happened to the maverick owner Jerry Jones, who put his money where his mouth was and went out and bought the best players? Is it old age, lack of urgency, or too many chefs …
Considering that the Dallas Cowboys are playing in Year 65 of the franchise’s existence, it’s very hard to find franchise firsts these days. Yet, in Sunday’s brutal 41-7 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Cowboys did something for the first time since the 1960 season. Did you catch it? It’s right there in black and white. …
