It’s likely that the Cowboys will target a specific type of free agent.
The 2024 NFL new league year and free agency begin on March 13, which is rapidly approaching. We will eventually learn whether or not Jerry Jones’ “all-in” remark comes to pass on that day. Keep your breath moving. In order to strengthen the roster, the Dallas Cowboys will instead attempt to make some prudent free agency acquisitions.
We’re going to examine a couple buy-low free agents today that we think the Cowboys ought to pursue in free agency. While none of these players is guaranteed to start, they would all at least add much-needed depth to their respective positions. They should all be reasonably priced as well.
John Jenkins definitely fits the criteria for the Cowboys, who aim to get larger and better along their defensive line. Even though he turns 35 on July 11 and is past 30 years old, he showed last season with the Raiders that he still has a lot of energy left. Even though Jonathan Hankins is still a better one-technique, the 6’3″, 327-pound DT is still an improvement. In a similar vein to the one-year, $1.3 million contract he inked in Oakland the previous season, he might be a cheap replacement for Mike Zimmer that Dallas signs.
Whatever the reason, Kenneth Murray’s tenure with the Chargers never quite lived up to his position as a first-round draft pick. They ultimately decided not to pick up his fifth-year option even though he intermittently displayed glimpses throughout his four years in Los Angeles. Dallas may show interest in the 6’2″, 241-pound Oklahoma linebacker again now that he is a free agent, having expressed interest in him in 2020. Maybe he’s not too expensive, and he possesses the size and skill set that Mike Zimmer looks for in an MLB player. He’d be a very desirable free agent if Dallas could secure a deal around $4–$5 million annually.
The bride is never the bridesmaid. That’s a fitting summary of Gus Edwards’ stay in Baltimore. Edwards never really was seen as Ravens RB1 material, even though he took advantage of every opportunity that came his way. That may work to the Cowboys’ advantage because the 6’1″, 238-pound RB still has a lot of tread left on his tires. His previous season saw him rush for more over 800 yards at an average of 4.1 yards per carry, along with 13 rushing touchdowns. He may join Dallas on a one-year, $3.6 million contract.
