The history of the Dallas Cowboys wide receivers is one of the most special position-group legacies in the entire NFL. From the #88 club to guys like Terrell Owens, Amari Cooper, and now George Pickens, there is no shortage of star power in the lore of Dallas’s WRs.

In 2025, we saw a new layer added to this history as Pickens, CeeDee Lamb, and emerging contributor Ryan Flournoy racked up the receptions, yardage, and touchdowns throughout the season.

This trio is arguably the strongest aspect of Dallas’s team going into 2026, and I’m curious if we haven’t even seen the...

As we are in the final doldrums of the offseason, there are certain topics that make the rounds for fans of various football teams. We have those types of conversations around here all of the time and will until training camp kicks off. Again, the doldrums.

Recently the folks at Hogs Haven were discussing the Dallas Cowboys and in doing so posed a question to their audience: Which player would you steal from the Cowboys?

We all hate the Cowboys’ rivals, but we can acknowledge that they have legitimate players on their teams. If we could we certainly would steal...

In 2025, the presumptive starting five Cowboys offensive linemen (Tyler Guyton – Tyler Smith – Cooper Beebe – Tyler Booker – Terence Steele) only played together on a grand total of 275 snaps out of a possible 1,186, the lowest level since at least 2021. Injuries to their starters forced the Cowboys into an uncommonly high amount of personnel changes along the offensive line, leaving them with one of the least stable lines in the NFL and severely testing their roster depth.

The Cowboys started the season with 11 offensive linemen on their roster. By the end of the season,...

Why Cowboys RB Jaydon Blue feels he’ll put disappointing rookie season behind him – Jon Machota, The Athletic

Jaydon Blue is preparing for a much better second season in the NFL.

The Cowboys’ leading rusher is set. Williams did very little on-field work during organized team activities and minicamp. The team knows what they have at No. 1. It’s the No. 2 job that remains up in the air — and there’s no question the Cowboys would prefer that to be Blue.

But he has to earn it.

“I didn’t start off like I should have,”...

Sam Howell doesn’t have tons of NFL experience, but he plenty more than any other Cowboys backup quarterback’s had in a while. Even a month before training camp, Howell already feels like he’s here to fill a specific job regardless of the competition.

Background

Years in NFL: 4
Acquired by: Free agency (2026)

Despite a historic run at North Carolina, setting school records for passing yards and touchdowns, Howell was still a mid-range prospect in the 2022 draft class. An athletic scrambler with poor throwing mechanics and questionable decision making, he lasted until until the Commanders took him in...

*It is Day 79 of our 100-day countdown to kickoff. We are looking back at the 100 most iconic games in Dallas Cowboys history. The countdown will leads us right up to the opening game of 2026. Our look back doesn’t depend on just one criteria for our rankings. We take into consideration things like how big the game was for the organization, how memorable the game was, games that had unusual events take place, games that are a part of NFL lore, Cowboys firsts, and games where the Cowboys just plain dominated. Variety is the spice of life and...

The Dallas Cowboys were able to retain all of their starters from a season ago on offense and should once again be one of the top units in the entire league. Some depth issues still need to be worked out, but as things stand right now the biggest concern on offense may be at left tackle.

We are now about a month before the Cowboys report for training camp, and it’s said there’s an open competition between Tyler Guyton and Nate Thomas for the starting left tackle job. While Guyton is favored to win, the outcome is no doubt important...

With Christian Parker now in control, the Dallas Cowboys new-look defense will have several new faces starting for them this year or playing key backup roles. There’s not a single position that is not being made over or upgraded, but the one many believe still needs to be addressed the most is at inside linebacker.

Despite drafting Jaishawn Barham in the third-round this year and trading for Dee Winters, there are those, at least outside the organization, who believe more is needed to upgrade the MLB position. Because of that, Dallas continuously is predicted to sign free agent Bobby Wagner...

When the Dallas Cowboys chose to move on from Mike McCarthy and accept Brian Schottenheimer, it came with a two-fer. New head coach. New playcaller. The reaction was a little mixed because Schottehnheimer had been in the building previously and had some degree of influence over the offense, although it was unclear how much. Critics of McCarthy were glad to see his predictable, outdated Texas Toast offense no longer around, but that came with no promises that things were going to be better.

Enter Schottenheimer. Would we see more of the same, or would giving him more control open things...

This is the Cowboys team that bothered me, not because these players could not play, but the what-ifs. All these players could play and some were great. A few of these guys, I thought, would be the long-term answer. That’s why this list is frustrating.

I don’t want this to be just another injury list. Some of these what-ifs are about workload, bad defense, availability, and one moment changing a career.

Quarterback: Tony Romo

Tony Romo is the quarterback of my what-if team.

Romo threw for 34,183 yards and 248 touchdowns as a Cowboy. This wasn’t just some...

Ranking WR, TE, RB groups for 2026: Best and worst NFL teams – Bill Barnwell, ESPN

An offseason ranking looks at the skill positions.

7. Dallas Cowboys

2025 rank: 11 | 2024 rank: 8

The Cowboys might claim to have the best one-two punch in the league at wide receiver between CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens.

Pickens’ performance after moving from Pittsburgh to Dallas is a great example of how context can dramatically change a player’s production. Pickens shifted from a run-first offense with bad quarterback play in Pittsburgh to one that...

We are one step closer to football, and now with minicamp now behind them, the Dallas Cowboys release their schedule for 2026 training camp in Oxnard starting in late July.

Starting July 29th, Dallas will be in Oxnard, California for the 20th year in a row.

The Cowboys released their practice and team activity schedule for next month’s training camp on Wednesday, with several sessions that will be open to the public and free of charge.

We have known the dates for a bit, but I wanted to drop the official things they will be doing now that it has...
