The Landry Hat

● By Mike Luciano
The Dallas Cowboys haven't been as active in free agency as their brand and pedigree would suggest in the last few years, choosing instead to build through the draft. While a prudent approach, that way of thinking has left them in a position where they have their backs against the wall. They need to hit a grand slam in the 2025 NFL Draft if they want any chance of becoming a viable contender next season. However, in a rare burst of good news, the Cowboys won't have to go that far as they try to build a deep roster on both sides of the ball. The Cowboys could spend all of their top picks on players from Texas schools, and they could still end up building a very deep roster that puts them on a tangible path back to contention in what is becoming a deep NFC.
