The Cowboys brought back the speedy receiver, but was it a good move?
As free agency slows down (although the Cowboys still have a few irons in the fire), we’re going to take a look back at their signings and evaluate the good and the bad of each. Today we examine the Cowboys re-signing Tavon Austin.
ContextIt was during the draft last year when the Cowboys sent a sixth-round draft pick to the Los Angeles Rams for the services of Tavon Austin. The Cowboys were in the midst of rebuilding...

Height: 6’3”
Weight: 250 lbs
Arm Length: 33 5/8”
40 time: 4.62

Pros:It will be hard to find a front-seven defender in this yeas draft class that possesses as much versatility as Ben Banogu. During his time at Louisiana Monroe and Texas Christian, Banogu has played OLB, defensive end, defensive tackle, and ILB between his two collegiate teams. In his many roles, Banogu has also found...
After meeting with Clayton Geathers and Eric Berry early this week, the Cowboys agreed to a one-year deal with ex-Vikings safety George Iloka on Saturday.
Every team wants to ace the NFL Draft, but looking around the league it’s clear there are some teams that need to make it happen more than others. Whether it’s the last attempt for management before being fired, or whether we’re talking about a team on the cusp of a breakout, these teams can't flub this annual event. Jacksonville Jaguars The Jacksonville brass is convinced QB Nick Foles is going to be the right man to get the franchise over the hump. That’s debatable. But since...
Jachai Polite is not a squeaky clean prospect, but he wouldn’t be there at 58 if he was.
There are always a handful of cases every year where an NFL combine performance destroy’s an NFL draft prospect’s stock. Last year, we saw Orlando Brown’s stock plummet due to poor testing, and this year it looks like our unlucky candidate is Florida EDGE rusher Jachia Polite. While being unlucky for the player, it could end up being a blessing in disguise for the Dallas Cowboys who are in...

He recently visited the Oakland Raiders before coming to The Star for...
Cowboys fans entered the 2019 offseason hoping to bring in a difference maker such as Earl Thomas in free agency. Those hopes didn’t come to fruition, as Dallas has opted to bring in smaller deals, including one with George Iloka, rather than splurging for a big splash. The Cowboys' COO and executive vice president Stephen Jones went in-depth on Dallas' mindset this offseason in an interview with Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer. Jones addressed why Dallas is rarely active in free...

The Cowboys have agreed to a one-year deal with free agent safety George Iloka, ESPN’s Todd Archer reports [Twitter link].

Iloka marked the third safety to visit with Dallas this offseason, after Clayton Geathers, who rejoined the Colts, and former Chiefs All-Pro Eric Berry. Archer mentions the Cowboys are concerned about their depth at the...
The Cowboys have signed a new safety in free agency.
The Dallas Cowboys have been flirting with the idea of adding an experienced veteran safety to their secondary for some time. There was Earl Thomas, Eric Berry, and now they have decided to add George Iloka on a one-year deal. He’s the newest member of the Cowboys.

The Cowboys made a nice move when they signed this free agent.
Yes, the Dallas Cowboys are known for their bargain-bin shopping when it comes to NFL free agency. Long gone are the days when Jerry Jones lavished the big bucks on free agents to wear the star. Instead, with the rise of Stephen Jones’ power within the organization, the Cowboys have been much more circumspect about who they sign.
So it goes as the Cowboys make their way through 2019 free agency. They’ve made a few outside...

School: Eastern Michigan
Height: 6’5”

Crosby changes directions with ease when playing the run, and mirroring quarterback movements when in the backfield. He...
The Dallas Cowboys are going to go as far as QB Dak Prescott takes them, both in 2019 and the foreseeable future. The big picture: Entering his his fourth NFL season, Prescott has all the tools to take the next step. Now it’s time for him to put up, or shut up. Great expectations: The Cowboys have put all their faith in Prescott, and now it’s time for him to deliver. Owner Jerry Jones has made it clear Prescott, 25, is in line to sign a massive extension soon. With it, the expectations...
The Senator is back for the Cowboys, but what’s the impact?
As free agency slows down (although the Cowboys still have a few irons in the fire), we’re going to take a look back at their signings and evaluate the good and the bad of each. To kick off this series, we’ll look at the signing of Jason Witten.
ContextJason Witten retired during the 2018 draft, opting for the commentator’s booth on Monday Night Football. The Cowboys tried to compensate for that in 2018 by using the group...
Taking defenders from the SEC is usually a good idea.

This is shocking and not at all normal!
The NCAA Tournament is going on which means one thing, it’s time for NFL owners to get together and discuss various things at the annual owners meetings.
It’s at these meetings where a lot of change theoretically occurs for the game we all love. Owners discuss various topics and concerns that are happening within the league, and among other things they propose new rule changes.
In the days of 2019 there are some legitimate rules to discuss. There...

If Randall Cobb can deliver, Cowboys fans will be ecstatic.
Thursday was a fun day around the world of sports as the NCAA Tournament officially kicked off.
It meant more than that to the Dallas Cowboys though as they officially inked their newest wide receiver, Randall Cobb, to a contract. It’s never official until pen meets paper as they say, and it can’t be undone now.
