While they&#8217;ve already made some strategic moves, there&#8217;s still room for growth as they continue to shape their roster through free agency and the draft.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/GettyImages-2170883941-1.jpg?quality=65&amp;strip=all\" alt=\"The Dallas Cowboys Have Hope for the Future\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Offseason Moves So Far<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Cowboys have been active, but the job isn&#8217;t finished yet. Let&#8217;s dive into the areas they still need to address to bolster their lineup.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cornerback<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Adding Cobie Durant was a smart move, providing both starting talent and depth. However, concerns linger with DaRon Bland&#8217;s recovery from consecutive foot surgeries and the uncertain development of Shavon Revel.<\/p>\n<p>Durant&#8217;s one-year contract means the Cowboys might still look to the draft for another cornerback. In the NFL, you can never have too many quality corners.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Outside Linebacker<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The acquisition of Rashan Gary offers a solid partner for Donovan Ezeiruaku, and the signings of Sam Williams and Tyrus Wheat add depth. Yet, the Cowboys are still seeking that explosive pass-rushing presence.<\/p>\n<p>Rumors about Jonathan Greenard have circulated, but nothing concrete has materialized. The draft could be their best bet to find that spark.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Middle Linebacker<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This position remains a glaring need. With free agency options dwindling, the Cowboys might need to explore trades, though there&#8217;s been little noise on that front. The draft appears to be the most viable path to securing a starting middle linebacker, likely requiring one of their first-round picks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Defensive Tackle<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Trading away Osa Odighizuwa and Solomon Thomas was unexpected, leaving a gap that Otito Ogbonnia alone can&#8217;t fill. The Cowboys could still look to free agency for solutions, but they&#8217;ve also been scouting draft prospects. Christian Parker&#8217;s vision for this position might shape their next move.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Safety<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The signings of Jalen Thompson and P.J. Locke bolster the safety position, yet further upgrades wouldn&#8217;t be surprising.<\/p>\n<p>With a deep draft class, the Cowboys have their eyes on several prospects. Whether they make a move early in the draft or later, enhancing this position remains a priority.<\/p>\n<p>As the offseason unfolds, the Cowboys are poised to make strategic decisions that could have a lasting impact on their success. With a mix of seasoned acquisitions and fresh talent from the draft, Dallas is gearing up to make a statement in 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dallas Cowboys have been making waves this offseason, setting the stage for what could be an exciting 2026 NFL campaign.
