With Osa Odighizuwa signed to a four-year deal, the Cowboys are building around him at the defensive tackle position. With only five players at the position on the roster, what will they do next to surround him?

When it comes to two of the best players to ever suit up for the Cowboys, and in the NFL, there's only way logical way to immortalize both: at the same time. 

After two years with limited reps, Deuce Vaughn enters his third season with something to prove. Maybe being reconnected with his college coach at KSU will help him take that necessary leap forward.

If pick 12 comes around and Penn State tight end Tyler Warren is there, how do you pass on him? A lot of people say the Cowboys don't need a tight end, but he's a stud who can immediately improve the run game, the passing game and the red zone. Even though Dallas seems set at the position, he'd be the No. 1 tight end on the roster. 

On a day that Tyron Smith announces his retirement, Mickey Spagnola honors the future Hall of Famer in this week's Mick Shots. Plus, voluntary offseason workouts kick off and a look back at this week's dates in Cowboys history.

While the Cowboys have a huge void to fill at right guard with Zack Martin retired, players such as T.J. Bass should get plenty of chances to compete, not only at right guard but backup spots all across the interior of the line.

The lack of a fourth-round pick needs to be addressed by either trading back eight to 10 spots (assuming they get offers) or using the later-round picks in a package to move up to the fourth. I would prefer to move back and get at least a third-round pick, if not better, and save those fifth- and sixth-round picks for taking shots at players with potential to contribute. What would you do?

It's been over a decade since the Cowboys drafted the same position in the first round two years in a row, but don't rule that out in 2025 as offensive tackle could make sense yet again.

The middle of the Cowboys' offensive line got plenty news this offseason, from the retirement of Zack Martin to free-agent additions. There will likely be some heavy competition at the guard and center spots this year. 

The Cowboys gave a three-year deal to Markquese Bell this offseason, suggesting he could have a much bigger role in the defense, like he had two years ago when he went over 100 tackles.

I was surprised to hear Brian Schottenheimer talk about building the team from the outside in, focusing on those players who are on the ends or edge. I've always heard championship teams are built from the inside out, focusing first on the offensive and defensive lines. Am I missing something? What do you think of this approach?

Compared to DeMarcus Lawrence since he was drafted, defensive end Marshawn Kneeland now gets the chance to shine even brighter in his second year as he'll compete for a starting spot.

The last time Malik Davis was given an opportunity to show what he could do for the Cowboys, he flashed potential; and the unsettled RB depth chart means a new chance has arrived.

Faced with three obvious possibilities when they go on the clock in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Cowboys are already weighing which direction they'll likely take.

It's one thing to be the Cowboys' first defensive lineman picked in the first round since Russell Maryland, but it's another thing to prep for a third coordinator in just three years.

Texas A&M EDGE Shemar Stewart has one of the best athletic profiles at his position for a prospect in recent years. The production wasn't always there in college, can it be in the NFL?

Why does everyone seem to think Dallas needs to pick a running back in the first round? The running back class is very deep, and they can find one in the later rounds. The Cowboys should pick a defensive tackle or defensive end in the first round, right? Great NFL teams build their offensive and defensive lines first. 

The Cowboys' tight end room is one of the youngest position groups on the roster, and they seem to be content with what they've got. Now, can they take the next step in their development?

Former Cowboys offensive tackle Tyron Smith is expected to retire with the team that drafted him ninth overall in the 2011 NFL Draft on Wednesday, after spending 13 years with the Cowboys in his 14 year career. 

Ole Miss CB Trey Amos has made the jump from the Sun Belt to the SEC, and he's played well at both levels. Now, could he play at a high level for the Cowboys in the secondary?

As Mickey Spagnola writes in his Friday column, the Cowboys have to be ready for anything in this upcoming draft as the best-laid plans can often go awry.

In this week's Mick Shots, Mickey Spagnola looks at how depth options could play a part on who to pick at No. 12. Plus, a closer look at Joe Milton's lone NFL game, sleeping on the corner, a Happy Birthday and more!

As a fan in the UK and not getting wall-to-wall coverage, it's interesting to see what players and positions have been prioritized so far. Aside from signing Micah Parsons, what do you see as the most important moves this front office still needs to make?

As Mickey Spagnola writes in his Friday column, Joe Milton joins the Cowboys hoping to become the latest in a long line of backup quarterbacks who went on to have standout careers in Dallas.

The hysteria over contracts is cranking up again, writes Mickey Spagnola in his weekly Mick Shots, with the negotiation of an extension for Micah Parsons now front and center. Plus, a check-in with head coach Brian Schottenheimer from the NFL meetings and more.

Did the Cowboy's do enough in free agency to pick the best player available at No. 12 in the upcoming draft instead of reaching for a lower-ranked player at a position of need? 

The lack of a fourth-round pick needs to be addressed by either trading back eight to 10 spots (assuming they get offers) or using the later-round picks in a package to move up to the fourth. I would prefer to move back and get at least a third-round pick, if not better, and save those fifth- and sixth-round picks for taking shots at players with potential to contribute. What would you do?

With most running backs having relatively short spans of productivity in the NFL, is it wise to spend a high draft pick on one (Ezekiel Elliott being a recent example)? Would the Cowboys be better off using the No. 12 pick to draft a player at a position that traditionally has more longevity?

I'm torn on all this talk about banning the tush push. On the one hand, if a team has figured out a play that works, it's up to opponents to figure out a way to defend it. Take care of it on the field, not in a conference room. On the other hand, the team in question is the Cowboys' biggest rival. What are your thoughts? 

It seems as if the Cowboys' free agent approach is to go after players who still have something to prove instead of players who have already proven themselves. Personally, I don't think it works. Why not go after players who have made a high impact with their previous team? It may cost more financially, but at least you know what you're getting. What do you guys think? 

Former Cowboys play-by-play broadcaster Bill Mercer died on Saturday, March 22, at the age of 99.

It seems to me that the Cowboys are finally moving in the right direction as far as adding depth to multiple positions in free agency. What do you feel is the biggest team need after having a decent free-agent period thus far?

Now that Myles Garrett has signed a new contract extension worth $40 million per year, how will that affect Micah Parsons' contract negotiations? Parsons has said he doesn't have to be the highest paid non-quarterback, but I can't imagine he would take anything less than $36 million per year.

How big of a loss is Zack Martin's retirement? And where would you rank him among the great offensive linemen in team history?
