The Dallas Cowboys appear to be done making additions through NFL free agency until after the NFL draft.<\/p>\n

In contrast to the 2024 offseason, they added several players not only as free agent signings, but through trades as well. They\u2019ve set themselves up to enter the draft without the need to reach for any position.<\/p>\n

While they seem content, PFN\u2019s Mark Stolte believes they could still improve their roster in free agency, with Will Hernandez as his top target.<\/p>\n

\u201dWill Hernandez is a relatively cheap option who has experience at the right guard position, which is a clear need for the Cowboys after losing Zack Martin to retirement. This will give them immediate competition for Robert Jones and whoever they draft this season.\u201d \u2014 Stolte, PFN<\/p>\n

Hernandez is coming off a knee injury, which explains why he has yet to find a new team \u2014 and why Stolte believes he would be \u201crelatively cheap.\u201d Joining Dallas makes sense considering he spent the past two seasons under offensive line coach Klayton Adams, who took over as the Cowboys\u2019 offensive coordinator this year.<\/p>\n

Knowing a primary member of the coaching staff would help him get acclimated quickly, and it would be a win for Dallas as well. They have faith in Brock Hoffman as their starter, but if healthy, Hernandez would be an upgrade.<\/p>\n
