By Cutting Ware and designating Miles a June 1 cut, our Cowboys will have approximately $30 million available in 2015. That being said, they don't have a lot of starting players signed through 2015.

Dez Bryant and Tyron Smith will need new contracts. Looking at the DL, Crawford is our only player projected to compete for a starting job with a contract. HUGE NEED

Along the OL, Fred, Free and Mack have contracts, and I'm assuming Smith will ink a new deal. That still leaves a hole at guard and possibly at RT if we move away from Free. Remember, Leary has a degenerative knee. NEED/HUGE NEED

Assuming Dez get a new deal, we are OK at WR with TWil and Dez.

On Defense, Carr, Lee, Morris, Scandrick, Church, Wilcox, Crawford and Holloman are signed. That would make DL, linebacker a need, and possibly safety if Wilcox doesn't pan out. Cornerback is questionable. Carr started out solid for 6 weeks or so, then went downhill. Morris has struggled to stay healthy and has been a bit inconsistent.

Overall, I expect the boys to target a DL or 2 in free agency this year, along with a WLB. Target areas during the draft most likely will be OL, DL, & FS.
