-I believe the front office/coaching staff believes the biggest offensive strength lies within their OL. The two hires of Schott/Solari suggests they really want to fix their ground attack, especially schematically. Zeke in all likelihood has played his last game as a Cowboy as I don't see him taking a large paycut to stay. Pollard is the one who they want to keep as he isn't just a RB, but more of a weapon. In my opinion, Bijan Robinson will be a primary target in rd 1, him and Pollard will fix that run game in a hurry. Also, do not rule out taking another high lineman, even as high as rd 1.
-This front office has always prioritized having elite wide receivers, TO/Dez/Amari, etc. After what just happened last season with Tolbert not being ready, I highly doubt that will go the draft route again and look to sign a veteran to fill the need. Now what type of veteran, that remains to be seen. Also, really struggling to believe the team will take an undersized receiver as they never have drafted one in the first two days of the draft. They will add another receiver, but probably in that 3rd-5th rd range.
-Much to my dismay, they aren't going to draft a high tight-end. Just look at the production they have gotten out of Shultz who was a former 4th rd selection. Ferguson was also selected in the same round. This TE group is very deep and they should still find quality in the later rounds at the position.
-I fully expect this team to be looking for another starting corner. They know they have 2 legit starters, but need a 3rd one as their depth has proven they aren't capable when needed to be called upon. Such a deep corner class, but everyone knows they always fly off the board quickly due to the demand at the position. I see corner has a top 3 priority draft need as the market is too expensive to add a quality veteran. There are some rumblings that Diggs is recruiting Patrick Peterson to sign with the Cowboys, he could serve as a bridge, short-term starter on the outside.
-We know this front office has never prioritized the NT position, but they did make a trade in-season for one, which they would of never have done in the past. They also, have taken to late prospects in back to back years. Will Quinn convince them to sign or use a high draft pick at the position?
-Believe they want to keep all their in-house fa's, but it's going to be difficult as three of their stars need contract extensions: Diggs, Lamb & Parsons. It wouldn't surprise me if we see some unexpected releases to create more space, especially where they can take cap hits now and not all in the future. Tyron, Zeke, Armstrong, Gallimore, Lewis, Hooker all could be on the hot seat.
