Regretfully, the Cowboys lost to the Green Bay Packers in the Wild Card round even though they had a solid regular season.
In light of this, what should the Cowboys do in the summer to strengthen their roster for the 2024 season?
Draft Selections
Tyron Smith isn’t getting any younger, so the Cowboys, who have the 24th pick in the first round of the NFL, need to focus on an offensive lineman.
Troy Fautanu, Amarius Mims, and Jordan Morgan are three excellent prospects for Dallas to consider in the first round of the draft in order to bolster the offensive line of the Cowboys.
Smith can still play left tackle, but the Cowboys will need a backup if he gets hurt again, which seems likely.
In addition, considering Leighton Vander Esch’s injuries from the previous season, the inside linebacker position needs to be addressed.
Dallas is shorthanded due to injuries, and they need to fortify at inside linebacker after DeMarvion Overshown tore his ACL.
The Cowboys’ vulnerability on the ground was exploited by teams, and it ought to be reinforced in rounds two or three of the draft.
Immediately springing to mind are Jeremiah Trotter Jr. and Barrett Carter.
Contract Renewal
Re-signing the players who could benefit the Dallas Cowboys is the first step towards getting ready for the 2024 NFL season.
Immediately, three players come to mind:
Tyrone Smith
Gilmore, Stephon
Trent Sieg
Even though Smith is only 33 years old, re-signing these guys will undoubtedly depend on the asking price.
The Cowboys’ left tackle is still the finest in his position and ought to be re-signed.
Michael Gallup and Leighton Vander Esch are two players who might be let to leave the Cowboys in order to make room for new players and free up some cash.
Agents Without Charge
With defensive tackle Chris Jones an obvious target, the Cowboys may have the money to make a move in the free agent market.
Although the Dallas defence has been among the best in the league in previous years, Jones’ signing may be the catalyst for them to advance.
Even though Jones turns 30 before the 2024 season, he tops the NFL in many of the important statistics for his position, and the Cowboys would greatly benefit from having him.
