There are some interesting names the Cowboys could look to target in free agency.
Whether it's out of envy watching the Philadelphia Eagles play in the Super Bowl or out of need, there is reason to believe the Dallas Cowboys could be much more active in free agency than they have in years past. Maybe this is the year they go "all in", unlike last year.
Considering all of the current "needs" they have, the Cowboys can't simply rely on building their roster through the 2025 NFL Draft. They will have to address a few of those "needs" via free agency, but who those players may be is the ultimate unknown right now.
Today, we thought we'd have a little fun and remove all restraints by putting together a wish list of free agents the Cowboys to target in order to upgrade the offensive side of the ball. As unlikely as it is a sign anyone from this list, we still have our fingers crossed.
With Dak Prescott working his way back from a season-ending hamstring injury, and with Will Grier currently the only other QB on the roster, finding a new backup QB would be a wise move to make on the Cowboys part. Justin Fields, a former first-round draft pick, is only 25 years old and went 4-2 as a starter last season with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He could be an ideal QB2 in Dallas.
Projected contract via PFF: 1 yr., $11m avg/yr. ($11m guaranteed, $11m total)
Running back is arguably the Cowboys biggest roster "need" right now and why they are projected by some mocks to draft RB Ashton Jeanty with the 12th overall pick in the first-round. If they choose to go the free agency route though, J.K. Dobbins is a player to target. His injury history is well documented, but when healthy he's proven he can be a highly productive RB in the league. Signing him as a free agent could allow Dallas to wait a little later in the draft to take advantage of the deep RB draft class.
Projected contract via PFF: 2 yrs, $3.5m avg/yr. ($4m guaranteed, $7m total)
Together at last in Dallas? Stefon and Trevon Diggs would love nothing more than to play together with the Cowboys and as fate would have it it could be mutually beneficial for all parties concerned. Dallas needs to upgrade the WR2 position behind CeeDee Lamb and Stefon has the talent to do just that. He is coming off a season-ending knee injury, but is expected to be back to 100% for training camp. His ability to be a threat in the passing game at all three levels of the field would be a significant upgrade to Dallas' aerial attack.
