This has been a rather productive offseason for the Dallas Cowboys. They re-tooled their entire coaching staff and have been active in NFL free agency.<\/p>\n

Dallas has been focused heavily on the defensive side of the ball with multiple linebacker additions. They also reunited with Dante Fowler after he spent 2024 with the Washington Commanders.<\/p>\n

On offense, their focus has been on the running back position. Dallas signed Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders, who give them a decent committee. What they haven\u2019t done is add another boundary receiver, which is why that position remains their primary need.<\/p>\n

Perhaps their goal will be to add depth in the 2025 NFL Draft. If so, one player to watch is Roc Taylor from Memphis, who has a meeting with Dallas scheduled.<\/p>\n

Following his pro day yesterday, Memphis WR Roc Taylor has a virtual meeting with the Washington Commanders\u2019 offensive staff today, source said. He is also scheduled to meet with Dallas in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

Taylor is an impressive wideout with a big frame (6-foot-3, 215 pounds). He was used sparingly early in his career but exploded over the past two years.<\/p>\n

Over his final two seasons with the Tigers, Taylor has 135 receptions for 2,033 yards with six touchdowns.<\/p>\n

Known for using his size to win contested passes, Taylor is seen as a potential weapon in the red zone. The issue is that he\u2019s still very raw, which is why Dallas might not be willing to pull the trigger.<\/p>\n

They already have their share of developmental players at wideout and need a sure thing across from CeeDee Lamb. That said, Taylor could be worth a late round flyer as long as their primary needs are set.<\/p>\n
