If there's one thing we know about the Cowboys front office it's that they are very predictable.
Things we know:
Cowboys hoard compensatory draft picks, which has resulted in the Boys having a projected 10 draft picks in 2021.
We resign roughly 35% of our starter free agents and 30% of our reserves and ST guys
The positions that the front office priorities in free agency tells us exactly the positions we will be prioritizing in the draft(Cooper-Lamb, Brown-Diggs, McCoy and Poe-Gallimore)
We can *create* CAP space and have the *ability* to sign whoever we want if we wanted, but that won't happen as we are in a bottom-half in the NFL CAP situation
Mike Nolan sucks
What you should expect:
The Cowboys again have a few players that might fetch some higher than expected contracts in free agency, those being Dalton, Aldon, Awuzie, and X Woods. They will want to capture those resulting compensatory picks to give them extra ammo in 2022. Those wanting the Leonard Williams of the world(especially at the expense of Dak LMAO) can stop dreaming right now.
If we look at the roster how it stands now, there seems to be major holes at QB, DT, CB, and SAF. Those are my early candidates for positions they will address with the majority of their FA spending and top draft capital.
You should expect to acquire the vast majority of our talent in the following ways: Draft, resigning of our own, trading Day 3 picks either from this season or 2022 when they expect to get more comps, signing players that don't count against the compensatory calculation whether from being cut or after the compensatory period has ended
