Dallas Cowboys
The best in this year’s DE class for the Cowboys’ draft
The Dallas Cowboys aren’t out of the market for a new defensive end in this year’s draft. To help get accustomed with this year’s edge class we continue to dive in our top positional series and this time look at the top edge defenders, giving a quick description of their best and worst attribute.
Best - First step
Carter’s exceptional first-step quickness and snap-count anticipation is what makes him the most talented edge rusher in this year’s draft. He bursts off the line with...

Micah Parsons showing up to voluntary workouts is nice, but it should not have been a requirement.
The Dallas Cowboys began voluntary workouts on Monday. It marked the first football-ish activity to happen for the team since the organization hired Brian Schottenheimer to be their head coach. Getting off to a promising start is certainly what everybody wants, but setting Schottenheimer up for as much success as possible is ideal.
This idea is why the would-be status of Micah Parsons was of high interest as Monday approached. Parsons and the Cowboys have been in the middle of contract extension talks...

Near the end of the 2024 college football season, LSU receiver Kyren Lacy was a potential first-round pick in next week’s draft.
That all changed in mid-December on a road in Louisiana. Lacy was allegedly driving recklessly, speeding and passing in a no-passing zone that morning.
An oncoming car swerved to avoid hitting Lacy’s car.
That vehicle could not avoid a head-on collision with the car Lacy was passing.
Lacy did not stop or call 911. Herman Hall, a passenger in the car Lacy passed, died at the hospital from his injuries.
Lacy would declare for the draft two days...

Thanks to Tyron Smith for everything.
We have another big piece of news to signify the end of an era for the Dallas Cowboys. After Zack Martin announced his retirement from the NFL earlier this offseason, former Cowboy Tyron Smith will do the same.
The Dallas Cowboys announced a press conference tomorrow at 3 PM EST. The expectation is that long-time Cowboy Tyron Smith, like Martin, will announce his retirement from the NFL. He is expected to sign a one-day deal so he can retire as a Dallas Cowboy.
Smith is a decorated player who likely will be enshrined in...

In a surprising development that has created buzz across the NFL landscape, Miami Dolphins star CB Jalen Ramsey is reportedly available for trade.
While no deal has been made yet, several teams are expected to be in the mix, and one name keeps resurfacing: the Dallas Cowboys.
With a need to bolster their secondary and a long-standing interest in Ramsey dating back to the 2016 NFL Draft, the Cowboys could finally have an opportunity to bring one of the league’s elite defensive backs to Dallas.
Jerry Jones should be on the phone with the Miami Dolphins right now.

The Cowboys absolutely have to hit on their second-round pick this year.
In our Monday discussion prompt here at BTB we discussed how it is very unlikely that the Dallas Cowboys will do something in the first round that will upset us. The second round, on the other hand, is an entirely different story.
Consider the last 10 players who the Cowboys have taken in the second round:

What do you think would have to happen for the Cowboys to find a trade-back partner in the first round?
The Dallas Cowboys have a very important decision to make when they are on the clock in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft. It’s unclear in which direction they go as there are a few different things they could do that would help their team. One of those things is trading back.
Trading back would be helpful in giving them more draft capital to address more areas on the roster rather than putting all the pressure on those...

All right, folks, here’s a 2025 Cowboys seven-round mock draft that should make some of you happy.
There are so many mock drafts out there, and if you combine them all, you may get a few picks correct, but let’s get crazy.
Maybe old Jerry Jones has a little Wildcattin’ Jerry left somewhere between all the Johnny Walker Blue and dollar bills.
If he does, this is his kind of draft.
A trade-up of this magnitude would need to be for a once-in-a-lifetime prospect, and one player fits that description.
Let’s get into it.
Round 1 Pick 12 (Trade) -----------------------...
Inside The Star
After taking the first couple of hours off of the Saturday session of the draft, the Dallas Cowboys will get back to work in the fifth round.
Dallas will have two draft picks in this round to work with. At one point, they had four picks in the fifth round.
They shipped off one to Buffalo for a back-up cornerback who might develop into a quality starter.
The other went to New England to upgrade the Cowboys’ backup quarterback situation.
Both trades filled needs with solid players, so Dallas has already had a successful round before the draft even begins....

All the Dallas Cowboys news that’s fit to print.
Micah Parsons is doing his part early to help the Cowboys establish a new team culture under HC Brian Schottenheimer and DC Matt Eberflus.
The rubber officially meets the road for the first time during the Brian Schottenheimer era with the start of voluntary OTAs on Monday, April 14 at The Star in Frisco; and a list of players have already begun filing in — including Micah Parsons.
It’s...
