Cowboys Headlines: Latest on potential Jalen Ramsey trade, QB and rookie rankings
Tuesday marked 100 days until the Cowboys kickoff the NFL season in Philadelphia. ESPN release a few lists to commemorate the milestone, and an early Cowboys matchup was mentioned as a key game. Another list projected the top 2025 rookies by position yet Dallas' draft haul was omitted entirely.
Dallas is seemingly still in need of a couple veteran defenders, but it appears as if the Jalen Ramsey trade rumors are more wishful thinking than reality. What is real is the culture shift in Dallas and the camaraderie being built within its walls. Although many predict Dallas to be a middle of the pack team, a cast of underachieving players could turn the tide.
Cowboys All-Pro kicker Brandon Aubrey was in the news and just as should be expected, it was to talk about another incredible record he just causally broke last season and how close he is to shattering another. Lastly, Dallas has enough pie to go around but seem content on waiting to make a move.
