The four-year deal awarded to Osa Odighizuwa sets the stage nicely for the Cowboys to add at least one free agent option to the D-line.

As the Cowboys try to repair and upgrade a defensive end group that was devastated by injury in 2024, re-signing DeMarcus Lawrence becomes one of several options.

With the future of Rico Dowdle uncertain and Ezekiel Elliott no longer in a Cowboys' uniform, there are some very real options at RB for Dallas in free agency.

With the search to establish the WR2 role opposite CeeDee Lamb, the Cowboys will have some options in free agency to help their case. 

Jake Ferguson leads a room of young tight ends that are all under contract heading into 2025, but that doesn't mean the Cowboys can avoid peeking at free agency — just in case.

Zack Martin is expected to enter retirement in 2025, and that means the Cowboys could assess some free agency options to help solidify their offensive line interior. 

Having used a first-round pick in 2024 at the position, the Cowboys might find themselves looking to address the offensive tackle in free agency this time. 

Dak Prescott is the definitive QB1 in Dallas, but there is no concrete answer to what happens in the role of QB2, and the Cowboys must consider free agency as well.
