Former scout says Jaydon Blue is better than Tony Pollard

Former scout says Jaydon Blue is better than Tony Pollard

Jaydon Blue has a lot of believers.

Could rookie Jaydon Blue be the Cowboys’ best running back since the prime of Ezekiel Elliott? One longtime NFL scout thinks so, and that would make the fifth-round pick an absolute steal from this 2025 draft class and a huge addition to the offense.

As part of a G-Bag Nation show on 105.3 The Fan, the crew was discussing winners and losers on the Cowboys roster from the most recent NFL draft. While on the topic of whether or not QB Dak Prescott “won” with this rookie class, Blue was listed among the...

Cowboys banking on UDFA players taken in ‘second draft’ to succeed in Dallas

Cowboys banking on UDFA players taken in ‘second draft’ to succeed in Dallas

UDFAs are going to be fun to track for the Cowboys this season.

The Dallas Cowboys call the undrafted free agents they sign after the draft their “second draft”, and not just because they think it’s a funny name for a bunch of no-name camp bodies they sign to fill up the roster.

They call it their second draft because the Cowboys don’t allow their scouts to “come off grade” after the draft. If they have a grade on a guy before the draft, they have to stick with it after the draft. Which means that after the draft, they...

How the George Pickens trade could actually be good for Jonathan Mingo

How the George Pickens trade could actually be good for Jonathan Mingo

Jonathan Mingo’s role with the Cowboys remains an interesting one after the George Pickens trade.

Welcome to the Dallas Cowboys George Pickens!

True to their word, the Dallas Cowboys weren't done making trades after the completion of the 2025 NFL Draft. They have now landed a wide receiver who will pair nicely with CeeDee Lamb and give Dak Prescott another go-to target in the passing game. This move should take Dallas' offense to an entirely different level.

While the excitement and expectations level has now risen significantly for the Cowboys after acquiring George Pickens, it does raise the question as...

Despite concerns, George Pickens is a perfect fit for Brian Schottenheimer’s Cowboys

Here is how George Pickens can help the Cowboys

After months of anticipation and speculation, and a complete lack of moves during the 2025 NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys have finally added a viable starter at wide receiver opposite CeeDee Lamb.

They traded for Steelers receiver George Pickens on Wednesday, and the move already has fans divided. Our own RJ Ochoa broke down the pros and cons of the trade, and it’s easy to understand why one of the most controversial wide receivers in the NFL has provoked such a reaction.

No one is questioning the talent. Let’s start there....

BTB Wednesday Poll: Which member of the Cowboys brain trust do you trust the most?

Which Cowboys leadership figure do you trust the most these days?

It feels like the public approval rating on the Dallas Cowboys has improved significantly over this offseason. The improvement is partly because of the depths they had fallen to last season.

Over the last few months we have seen the Cowboys address their roster by a number of different methods. There have been free agent signings, trade acquisitions and most recently the NFL draft.

If you are someone who feels like things “feel” better these days, who do you attribute this the most to? To be clear we are...

Steelers trade WR George Pickens to the Cowboys for draft picks

Well, good morning Cowboys nation. Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys told us not long ago that the train had not left the station, and he was actually right for once.

Regardless of what you think about him, they made a move for Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens on Wednesday morning, according to multiple reports.

As part of the deal, the Cowboys will also receive a 2026 sixth-round pick from the Steelers. Pittsburgh will receive a 2026 third-round pick and a 2027 fifth-round pick from Dallas in the trade.

The Steelers acquired star wide receiver DK Metcalf in a...

George Pickens traded to Cowboys: Pros and cons of deal for Dallas

The George Pickens trade is a very interesting one for the Cowboys.

The Dallas Cowboys struck a deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Wednesday to trade for wide receiver George Pickens. Dallas is sending a third-round pick in 2026 and a seventh-rounder in 2027 in exchange for Pickens and a 2027 sixth-rounder.

Initial reactions to this were all over the place from Cowboys fans. The team has a sore need at wide receiver and Pickens is a very talented one. In that sense the trade is fantastic.

But the trade obviously comes at a cost. While the third-round pick (all...

Can the Cowboys get enough production from former 1st-round pick?

Can the Cowboys get enough production from former 1st-round pick?

If the Dallas Cowboys front office does something well, it has been drafting talent in the first round and hitting a home run most of the time.

Mainly on the offensive line, and just like they did from 2011 through 2014 when they drafted Tyron Smith, Zach Martin and Travis Frederick, we have seen them try and mimic this again the last three years.

I really like the Tyler Booker pick, and we already know what Tyler Smith has done in his first couple of years in the league.

That leaves Tyler Guyton, a raw talent who has every chance...

BREAKING: Cowboys trading for Steelers WR George Pickens

The Dallas Cowboys are trading for George Pickens.

One of the biggest questions heading into the offseason for the Dallas Cowboys is who will be CeeDee Lamb's running mate at wide receiver. The front office has openly discussed the need for more explosive play at the position and aimed to address that in the first round of the NFL draft. After their dreams of Tetairoa McMillan ended with the Carolina Panthers selecting him at 8th overall, the Cowboys had to pivot.

Jerry Jones has made his move. Bobby Belt, Cowboys insider for 105.3 The Fan, says Dallas is trading for...

Injuries are clouding the defensive backs’ future in 2025

Injuries are clouding the defensive backs’ future in 2025

While it seems the defensive line and the linebacker units have solidified the Dallas Cowboys’ defensive front seven, there is a concern in the defensive backfield.

Namely, as of this writing, the cornerbacks resemble more of a roll call from a MASH unit’s sick list than a defensive unit.

Four of the top five corners are either still dealing with an injury, or are still recovering from an injury. That leaves a big question mark hanging over the defensive backfield.

That’s a question that needs to be answered sometime in August out in Oxnard, California.

This is the current depth...
