With NFL free agency still a few days away, there’s still some exhaust fumes from the 2023 scouting combine to wade through. Dallas uses the draft more so than free agency to fill holes left on the rosters. Last year’s Conner Williams departure led to a need at offensive line, filled by Tyler Smith. Sam Williams was drafted as part of the plan to replace Randy Gregory.
Dallas has created a bit of wiggle room against the salary cap in order to make some signings, but it would be a great departure from tradition for them to be major players in the first stanzas of free agency. Wise fans know to keep their focus on the draft and so it’s only fair to look at prospects whose combine performances should’ve caught the club’s eye.
