Cowboys

• In ranking the league’s top quarterbacks, Jeremy Fowler listed Cowboys QB Dak Prescott among the top quarterbacks, citing anonymous coaches and executives: “He’s a true, acute progression passer,” an NFL coordinator said. “There are only so many of those types. He can read the whole field, from pre- to post-snap. He’s just really a good commander of the offense. I think he can use his athleticism even more and run for first downs. That would give [the Cowboys] a new dimension.”
• Jeremy Fowler compiled a list of the league’s top tight ends, with Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson receiving a knock on his ball security from one NFC scout: “He’s really solid all around, high catch volume, tough, competes in the run game. His problem is fumbling. We targeted trying to get the ball loose when we played him.”
• Among interior linemen, Cowboys G Tyler Smith ranked first based on his athletic ability: “Rare combination of size, athleticism, strength and finish,” an AFC executive said. “He’s like prime Jason Peters playing guard. He has more flash plays than anybody.”
• Cowboys G Tyler Booker also received an honorable mention from an NFL coordinator: “Strong and athletic with physicality. Struggles a bit with guys that are good lateral movers.”
• On defense, Fowler‘s list of defensive tackles included former Jets DT Quinnen Williams: “The Jets will knock you down — the same thing happened to Leonard Williams — but I expect Quinnen to be better in Dallas, be rejuvenated a bit.

• Dallas WR CeeDee Lamb came in at number six on the receiver rendition of this list: “With his ability to separate and make big plays, the attention he demands creates opportunities for others in the offense,” an NFC scout said. “He’s still on the short list of guys who give you problems consistently.” (Fowler)
• An NFL coordinator expects a year back near the top of the league for Lamb in 2026: “I expect him to have a bounce-back year. He was never quite the same [last year] off that ankle injury.” (Fowler)
• Cowboys WR George Pickens checked in just below Lamb at seventh on the list: “One of the best I’ve ever seen at the contested catch,” a veteran NFL offensive coach said. “There’s such untapped ability there. It’s just a consistency issue and where his head’s at week to week.” (Fowler)
• Dallas LB DeMarvion Overshown received an honorable mention among the top-10 off-ball linebackers poll: “He moves like a safety. Incredibly talented. I want to see how he does this year after the injuries,” an NFC scout said. (Fowler)

Eagles

• Eagles LB Zack Baun was voted as the fourth-best off-ball linebacker in a poll of coaches and execs around the league: “He’s got lateral quickness and is an incredibly smart player,” an NFL personnel evaluator said. *“He’s perfect for Vic’s...
