FRISCO – The Dallas Cowboys’ wide receiver depth woes well documented. They have an arguable top-five player at the position in CeeDee Lamb, but not much behind him. Former No. 2 Brandin Cooks has departed through free agency, leaving behind a stable of unproven pass catchers hoping to prove themselves through the offseason. However, some have already gotten their chance and have not shown enough to keep the team content heading into 2025.

Free agency has passed and veteran options remain, or they could turn to the NFL Draft to find a talented rookie to add to the mix. Those are the two most plausible courses of action for the Cowboys. However, they have been known to cheap out and search desperately for an alternative in order to prove a point. Considering the abundance of talent available in the draft and at the top of free agency lists, this route may be unlikely.

But one should never rule out anything when it comes to the Cowboys and roster building. With that in mind, could Dallas get in the mix for Hunter Renfrow? The veteran receiver built his star with the Las Vegas Raiders in his first three years in the NFL, tallying 103 catches for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns in the final of those three seasons.

But the next two were a far cry from the excellence he had displayed, not reaching 350 yards in either campaign. Renfrow, 29, has spoken with the Raiders and Carolina Panthers, according to NFL media’s Ian Rapoport. He is open to meeting with more teams as well. Related: Could Cowboys ‘Rent’ Tyreek Hill?

When focusing on his merits from his early years, there is a clear vision for where Renfrow could make an impact. His shiftiness in space and ability in short yardage situations presents similarities to Cole Beasley and Randall Cobb, two players that Dak Prescott has played with before.

There are multiple obstacles to Renfrow’s fit in Dallas. First, the Cowboys have a full slate of receiver on the depth chart. Coming off a year away from the game, that does not bode well for his chances to climb the depth chart.

More apparently though, Renfrow has no traction to the Cowboys just yet and Dallas frankly has better options to explore if they want another receiver. Even when framing this through the most obscure lens, it’s hard to imagine the Cowboys reaching this far.
