Welcome to the part of the offseason where we try and find anything and everything to talk about until the NFL draft arrives.
Over the last week, we have seen and heard potential changes to the NFL rule book that some teams love and some teams hate.
Last year, we, of course, saw the move to the dynamic kickoff, as well as the league awarding a third challenge to a team following one successful challenge.
We also saw the hip-drop tackle “outlawed,” although it was more often fined after the fact than called on the field.
What rule changes could...
The Cowboys have a ton of capital to work with on Day 3 of the NFL Draft.
The Dallas Cowboys have been a little more aggressive this year in free agency than they were a year ago. Although they added a number of free agent additions, they will still rely heavily on the 2025 NFL Draft to upgrade their roster.
After the trade for Jonathan Mingo, the addition of compensatory picks, and the two trades for CB Kaiir Elam and LB Kenneth Murray, the Cowboys currently hold a total of 10 draft picks in this year's draft. Having 10 selections...
A Dallas Cowboys player in his third year will have a breakout season and eliminate the bust status he is currently developing.
The Cowboys are known for drafting well, but defensive tackle is one position that is tough to evaluate in the first two years. Mazi Smith will prove his doubters wrong this season.
Mazi Smith has had a tough time keeping up with the NFL’s speed, which is evident in his career’s production so far.
This article will examine Mazi Smith and the production of other defensive tackles to see when they started coming into their own.
The defensive...
The latest news surrounding the Dallas Cowboys is here
The Micah Parsons contract is still the topic until it gets done.
As the Cowboys progress in the offseason, pass rusher Micah Parsons is expected to ask for a $200 million contract extension that would become a record for a non-quarterback.
The request is in line with making him among the highest-paid players at his position. This offseason, Arlington native Myles Garrett signed a contract extension...
The latest news from around the division.
The top quarterback and wide receiver for the Giants are ready to get to work.
A Dynamic Union Veteran quarterback Russell Wilson and explosive receiver Malik Nabers have forged a connection that promises to revitalize the team’s offensive approach. Wilson, celebrated for his deep passing accuracy, has embraced Nabers’ ability to accelerate plays and create impactful moments downfield.
Unleashing Explosive Talent
Wilson expressed genuine enthusiasm about integrating...
Contracts tell you a lot about roster status for players
The Dallas Cowboys are constantly trying to make all the right moves when it comes to dealing with contracts. They receive a lot of heat for lollygagging on extensions (some of it deserved, some of it not), but there are also many other things that come into play when talking about a player's future. People will throw out blockbuster trades, recommend cutting players, and offer their suggestions on when a player should receive an extension.
There’s a lot to take into consideration, but oftentimes, some of the details are overlooked....
Cowboys draft prospects include RB Dylan Sampson
We continue our 2025 NFL Draft preview of draft prospects that could interest the Dallas Cowboys. Today we are looking at running back Dylan Sampson from Tennessee.
RB

Junior

Dylan Sampson was born on the 14th September, 2004 and is originally from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where he attended Dutchtown High School. In high school, he was a standout player, known for his speed, vision, and versatility, rushing for over 1,900 yards and scoring more than 30 touchdowns in his senior season,...
We know there will be a new backup QB in Dallas next season, but who?
After spending most of the last eight seasons as the Cowboys’ backup quarterback, Cooper Rush is now a Baltimore Raven. Dallas hasn’t really addressed his departure yet with an offseason move, but there are still some veteran free agents who could find their way into the competition.
Dallas did retain Will Grier from last year’s practice squad. He’s the lead candidate to be Dak Prescott’s backup right now, but only because there isn’t another QB under contract. In addition to Rush’s defection, Trey Lance remains...
Since 1989, the Dallas Cowboys have only used a top-100 pick on a wide receiver or running back just 18 times.
Their philosophy has generally prioritized linemen, linebackers, and defensive backs in the early rounds, widely ignoring the skill positions: running back and wide receiver (I purposely left out tight end).
A mixed bag of Hall of Famers, solid contributors, and outright busts are in those 18 players, but why have the Cowboys ignored those positions with early draft picks all this time?
You would think that it got better under Will McClay, but it’s actually gotten worse.
Since McClay...
We have a general open thread going on this fantastic Friday so in that spirit... who is your baseball team?
Happy Friday!
You may have noticed that we started doing some discussion threads here on the blog every weekday and every Monday through Thursday there will be a prompt that is either related to the Dallas Cowboys specifically or to the league at large.
But Fridays are a bit more fun in nature and in that spirit we will venture off onto some tangents from time to time. This Friday happens to fall one day after Opening Day in Major...
Since Jerry Jones purchased the Dallas Cowboys in 1989, the team has built a franchise rich in history, but when it comes to drafting wide receivers in the first round, the Cowboys have been remarkably selective.
In fact, only three wide receivers have been selected in the first round during Jones’ tenure as owner.
This limited history has led to some debate about whether the Cowboys should prioritize a wide receiver in the 2025 NFL Draft next month, especially as they look to build a team capable of competing for championships in the highly competitive NFC.
First, let’s take a...
Not even for Travis Hunter
In just about a month, the Cowboys will draft their next player with the 12th overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft. That is, if they don’t trade out of that slot before now. Draft trades have become extremely common in the NFL, especially for Dallas, and the prospect of trading up recently became a hypothetical discussion point.
Of course, Travis Hunter is the two-way phenom from Colorado who won this year’s Heisman after playing both wide receiver and cornerback on a full-time basis over the course of his entire college career. He finished this...
