Cowboys Eye Linebacker, RB Upgrades

0:00It's March 24th. From kickoff to the final whistle, this is NFL News Today, powered by AI. I'm Corey with the story. The Dallas Cowboys are eyeing upgrades at linebacker to shore up their defense under new coordinator Christian Parker. They need a reliable middle presence to cut down on Sunday mistakes, with free agent Jordan Brooks emerging as a top plug and play option, thanks too. His consistent tackle production and ball-hawking instincts. Graphwise, prospects like CJ Allen stand out for his run-stopping physicality and gap control, while others like Rodriguez offer speed but question. Marks in coverage and blocking. On the edge, Miami's messadour could transform their pass rush, bringing 12.5 sacks from last season, explosive moves, and versatility across the line. Fans and analysts see these additions as key to ending defensive uncertainty after recent growing pains. Parker's scheme demands quick winners who create chaos, and Brooks or messadour would ease pressure on the unit right away.

Big runs and scoring his first NFL touchdown after earning more trust from coaches. Meanwhile, wide receiver George Pickens holds strong leverage in extension talks as the market surges. The add-on just gave Jackson Smith and Jigba a 4-year. Deal worth $168.6 million at $42.2 million per year. With a draft looming, Cowboys moves here could lock-in contention pieces for 2026.
