Dallas Cowboys urged to make Zay Jones call, his dad won three Super Bowls with the team
Organizations now have a clearer picture of their rosters and the holes that still need to be filled, even though the NFL Draft is coming to a finish on Saturday night.
When the Dallas Cowboys were in Detroit, they addressed both sides of the ball and used a wide range of draft options.
After Jerry Jones traded back with the Detroit Lions in the first round, they selected Tyler Guyton, an Oklahoma left lineman, as their first pick.
In addition, Tyron Smith signed with the New York Jets in free agency, making the rookie Tyron Smith’s replacement.
However, there are still spots on the roster that America’s Team can address during the professional free agency.
The undrafted rookies have been filtered into their mini free agency and franchises sought after players to bulk out their rosters.
Despite having very limited movement in free agency before the NFL Draft, supposedly to save cap space, one of the only places to get Day 1 starters remains open.
Stephen Jones stated that they maximize their cap space every year and will have to dip into free agency to do so.
Cowboys expert and reporter Clarence Hill was confident about a wide receiver they could acquire on the open market.
On X, the reporter posted: “A healthy Zay Jones would be a good addition to Cowboys receiver room. Dad, Robert Jones, a Super Bowl champion with Cowboys.”
Hill is confident that the recently released AFC South prospect from the Jacksonville Jaguars will have an impact on the Cowboys if healthy.
Before reaching Jacksonville, Jones had a turbulent career in Buffalo and among the Las Vegas Raiders roster.
Nonetheless, he managed to find his feet with the Jaguars and produced a career-high receiving season with 823 yards.
Moreover, during their two playoff games in 2022, he went for 157 yards.
Jones suffered a hamstring injury in Week 2 which had him sidelined for 2023, one of two periods of inactivity last season.
Dallas is on the hunt for a WR2 after they cut Michael Gallup to save $9.5 million.
