Your Sunday morning Cowboys news.
These late-round receivers should be sure to ‘catch’ your eye.
Ricky White III, UNLV
Ricky White III topped 1,000 yards the past two seasons while scoring 19 touchdowns. He benefited from an explosive offense but should still be on the radar for any team wanting to add more firepower in the passing game. He has a strong feel for the game and is superior at tracking the ball in the air. White’s primary concern is dealing with man coverage but he also offers special teams versatility. That means he can still contribute while learning to overcome his weaknesses.
Jaylin Noel, Iowa State
At 5-foot-10 and 185 pounds, Jaylin Noel isn’t the biggest wideout but you wouldn’t know that by watching his tape. He’s a tough receiver who wins more than his share of jump balls. Throw in his vertical speed and he could be a lot of fun in an offense that plans to utilize far more play-action passing.
Andrew Armstrong, Arkansas
If the Cowboys want to add someone with plenty of size, they could look to Andrew Armstrong from Arkansas. Born in Dallas, Armstrong began his collegiate career at Texas A&M-Commerce before spending his final two seasons with the Razorbacks. He proved to be a valuable weapon once he was in the SEC, recording 764 yards in 2023 and 1,140 in 2024. Despite his numbers and quick burst off the line, there are questions surrounding Armstrong. He might be able to quiet those at the Combine and given his ties to Dallas, the Cowboys will be watching.
Jimmy Horn Jr., Colorado
If Dallas wants someone who can stretch the field and offer help in the return game, they could look to Jimmy Horn, Jr. The 5-foot-9, 160-pounder didn’t get the attention he deserved at Colorado, which is understandable. That team was loaded with star power on the field, plus they have Deion Sanders coaching them.
Horn still managed to stand out due to his developed route tree and elite speed. He would likely be around late on Day 3 and would give them someone capable of hitting the home run.
Did the Cowboys really get it right this time?
Here we are again, talking about an offseason filled with more questions than answers, and unfortunately for all of us fans, we are in store for much of the same.
With a boat load of pending free agents, the Cowboys coaching staff is brand new and when it comes to scoring points, this team is going to rely on three people.
Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb and Brain Schottenheimer.
Bad Formula?
This offense maybe reached its...
