We’re less than a month away from the 2019 NFL Draft and it’s a big one for the Cowboys. Without a first round pick, they can’t go wrong in day 2. So far, the front office has managed the offseason pretty well. Although there are still positions that need help, there’s none with so much urgency …
Since being drafted fourth overall in the 2016 NFL Draft, Ezekiel Elliott has carried a heavier load than just about any running back in football. He’s totaled over 1,000 touches in just three seasons, and did so even with a six game suspension in 2017. This workload cannot be sustainable forever, can it? Probably not. And …
The 2019 NFL Draft is the next step in the Dallas Cowboys roster building and they are getting ready to have a bunch of players in their building over the next month. Between pre-draft visits, the Dallas Days, and the National 30 visits, the Cowboys front office and coaching staff will be busy getting to know …
It’s no secret the Cowboys are in the market for defensive backs in the 2019 NFL Draft. Looking to improve at safety and potentially at cornerback, they may end up targeting some defensive backs with position versatility. Virginia’s Juan Thornhill might just have that versatility, and it appears the Cowboys have noticed. This week Thornhill made …
As the Dallas Cowboys near the draft, the list of players that will visit The Star in Frisco, Texas will begin to come together. A new name can be added to the list in the form of Missouri Wide Receiver Emanuel Hall. According to Bobby Belt, Hall is slated to be one of the Dallas Cowboys …
Despite signing veteran safety George Iloka last week, the Cowboys will still be going safety hunting during the 2019 NFL Draft. Dallas now has three legit starting options on their safety depth chart in Iloka, Jeff Heath, and Xavier Woods. But, outside of Woods, these safeties each tend to be better in smaller doses. If the …
Regardless of what happens with Robert Quinn, the Dallas Cowboys should still be in the market for an EDGE defender in the 2019 NFL Draft. Like quarterback and left tackle, pass rushers are held at a premium in the NFL for a reason. They are hard to come by and expensive to keep, as we all …

The Dallas Cowboys have done an outstanding job of filling holes with some cost-effective free agents so far in free agency, which should allow them two approach the 2019 NFL Draft without any glaring “needs”. This should free them up to take the best player available if they so choose, but they still have to keep …
Tight end has become a very intriguing position in Dallas. For the first time in 15 years, the Cowboys went through a season without Jason Witten lining up with the offense in 2018. Instead, Blake Jarwin and Dalton Schultz took over and didn’t contribute much to a struggling offense. They both had a few flashes here …
It seemed as if defensive end wouldn’t be a concern for the Dallas Cowboys in 2019. DeMarcus Lawrence did an amazing job last season keeping up his level of play and making a statement on why he’s one of the best defensive players in the NFL. Randy Gregory had a tremendous comeback season with six sacks …
Last week we took a gander at one potential scenario that could come to pass during the 2019 NFL Draft for the Dallas Cowboys. It involved trades, and we explored the idea that trading back is probably the best course of action for the Dallas Cowboys unless there is a player that they love that is …
The 2019 NFL Draft is light on a lot of the offensive skill position players at the top of the draft. There are a couple of wide receivers that are making noise in the first round, but I’m surprised to see that Iowa State Cyclones Wide Receiver Hakeem Butler isn’t one of them. Is he a …

There are a lot of fans around Cowboys Nation who are hoping former South Carolina Wide Receiver Deebo Samuel is still on the board when the Dallas Cowboys are on the clock in the second-round with the 58th overall selection. Samuel is the dream replacement for Cole Beasley for a lot of us, but would likely …

Though we’re still in the midst of the free agency frenzy that took hold this week, the Dallas Cowboys are continuing the grind toward the end of April as they look forward to the most important aspect of roster building for their franchise, the NFL Draft. As we know by now, the Dallas Cowboys prefer to …
Hidden among another deep receiver class, Kahlil Lewis from Cincinnati is one who hasn’t gotten much attention. The 6’0″ 200-pound receiver was among his conference’s best but wasn’t recognized as such. In his four years with the Bearcats, he caught 168 passes for 2,116 yards and 21 touchdowns. Lewis improved his numbers each season he played and …
