Dallas Cowboys Criticized for Inactive Free Agency Focused on Special Teams

The Dallas Cowboys are facing criticism for their conservative approach to free agency, despite having over $40 million in cap space. Recent re-signings, including return man Kevontae Turpin and punter Bryan Anger, have drawn mockery from fans who desire more impactful moves. Owner Jerry Jones has indicated that the team does not plan to be aggressive in pursuing external players, focusing instead on depth and value contracts. The Cowboys' most significant transaction so far has been re-signing defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa for $80 million, with fans expressing frustration over the lack of high-profile additions. As the team looks ahead to the NFL Draft, there are still potential targets available, particularly at wide receiver, including former player Amari Cooper and other notable names. The official start of the free agency period is set for March 12, when the Cowboys will have more opportunities to negotiate and fill roster gaps.
