In the draft, the Cowboys were even in their distribution of picks for the offense and defense. Ronald Jones could wind up being the replacement for Ezekiel Elliott. Brandin Cooks changes the complexion of the receiver room, while Stephon Gilmore gives them a veteran corner to pair with Trevon Diggs.
The Cowboys didn't do much in free agency, but they made two key trades that will shake up the depth chart. Trades/Free Agency: WR Brandin Cooks, CB Stephon Gilmore, RB Ronald Jones, G Chuma Edoga, LS Trent Siegĭraft: DT Mazi Smith, TE Luke Schoonmaker, LB DeMarvion Overshown, Edge Viliami Fehoko Jr., OT Asim Richards, CB Eric Scott Jr., RB Deuce Vaughn, WR Jalen Brooks Stephon Gilmore will join Micah Parsons and Trevon Diggs on the Cowboys defense. The actual starters don't matter as much at positions that rotate, but this still gives a good starting point for what the on-field product will be.Ĭonsidering all the Cowboys' additions this offseason, here are the projected starting lineups on both sides of the ball and a position battle to watch. Now is a good time to look at how the new pieces will fit-specifically, what the starting lineup will look like. Do-it-all tight end Luke Schoonmaker and linebacker DeMarvion Overshown weren't flashy picks, but they project to be serviceable players at positions the Cowboys needed to address. Sure, there are a few free agents out there who may be on the Cowboys' radar, but the players they will take to camp are already signed or, in the case of draft picks, waiting to be signed.ĭallas' draft class could best be described as "practical." It grabbed a run-stuffing defensive tackle in Mazi Smith first. With the introduction of the Dallas Cowboys' eight-man 2023 NFL draft class, the team's major additions to the roster are most likely complete.
