Cowboys Address Key Roster Needs Ahead of 2025 NFL Draft

The Dallas Cowboys have adopted a 'selectively aggressive' strategy this offseason, significantly enhancing their roster through free agency and trades, acquiring 10 new players. Notably, they have bolstered their defensive line, signing Dante Fowler, Solomon Thomas, and Payton Turner, yet they continue to neglect the critical 1-tech defensive tackle position, which poses a significant concern. As they prepare for the 2025 NFL Draft, the Cowboys are eyeing potential upgrades across several positions, including running back and wide receiver, although they remain uncertain about trading down from their 12th overall pick. The team's focus on depth at quarterback is also paramount, especially following backup Cooper Rush's departure. Experts suggest that while the Cowboys have made strides, they still need impactful players to truly elevate their competitiveness. This offseason has presented Dallas with a unique opportunity to address these needs ahead of the draft in April.
