The Dallas Cowboys have said farewell to more than a couple free agents this offseason and they have yet to account for a few of those absences. Here is jfmckessy's plan for Dallas going forward. FrontOffice33 | DallasCowboys
It’s been a wild and wonderful offseason for many teams already. The Bengals gave their offensive line a massive facelift and some teams that needed quarterback upgrades got massive ones.
The first wave of free agency is mostly over, and rather than making any big adds, the Cowboys’ primary focus thus far seems to have been holding onto players already on their roster. They began by placing the franchise tag on breakout tight end Dalton Schultz. Then, they cut Greg Zuerlein and Blake Jarwin to free up some cap space before using that extra room to sign DeMarcus Lawrence and Michael Gallup to three- and five-year extensions, respectively.
Dallas has already made some minor moves to patch up the roster in the wake of so many key players’ departures. Former Steelers receiver James Washington signed a one-year deal with the team and Dante Fowler is joining the Cowboys’ pass rush after a couple of years with the Falcons. While those are some solid moves to shore up the roster in spots of need after the first wave of free agency, there is still a lot of work to be done.
That’s why the Cowboys’ strategy for the rest of this offseason should primarily focus on upgrading that line. It may be tempting to look at some of the top receivers still available on the free agent market—Odell Beckham, Jarvis Landry, etc.—or in the draft, especially with Wilson and Cooper’s departures. But keeping Prescott well-protected will be a better long-term investment.
