"With that being said, at some point, Cowboys fans need to ask a harder question: why does this team keep ending the season the same way? Every season, the roster looks strong on paper. Then space disappears, games turn physical, and once again, Dallas runs out of answers. I've watched it happen too many times, and I know fans are tired of pretending it's bad luck."
"We don't have to guess anymore about who will play opposite CeeDee Lamb and take pressure off of our star receiver. Instead, we could keep our free agent to be, second star receiver, George Pickens. The offense has looked different. Coverage has shifted, routes have opened up, and defenses cannot overload one side and survive anymore. This alone has solved one of the longest-running frustrations fans have had with the Cowboys."
"Cowboys fans have seen over the years when the offense becomes one-dimensional. That's why soon-to-be free agent Javonte Williams matters. Resigning him in the offseason brings physicality, contact balance, and a reliable blocker. He keeps the offense on schedule when finesse stops working. Adding Travis Etienne could complete the picture and give the Cowboys offense speed, receiving ability, and an open-field threat. That combination would give the Cowboys a one-two punch they haven't had since Julius Jones and Marion Barber."
The Cowboys can address roster gaps through targeted free-agent signings that permit a best-player-available draft approach. Late-season collapses recur when physical games expose a lack of balance, speed, or linebacker range. Adding a true No. 2 receiver like George Pickens would reduce pressure on CeeDee Lamb and force defenses to spread coverage. Re-signing Javonte Williams would restore contact balance, blocking and short-yardage reliability, while adding Travis Etienne would add speed and receiving upside. A rangy linebacker such as Devin Lloyd would shore up the middle and improve coverage opposite DeMarvion Overshown.
