Free agency has started, and while teams around the league are reshaping their rosters with urgency, the Dallas Cowboys are taking a more methodical-or maddening-approach.

On the surface, there’s logic to it. As mentioned earlier today, with a new coaching staff in place, it’s reasonable to take Year one slow.

Let the staff evaluate what they have, get a better feel for how players fit their new schemes, and avoid wasting resources on unnecessary moves.

That’s a fair approach.

But here’s the problem: doing what they’ve done so far-and leaving that new staff in a six-foot hole before they even enter the draft-is just weird, foolish, and unserious.

The Cowboys didn’t just sit out the first wave of free agency; they actively declined to reinforce areas of obvious need, despite creating $55 million in cap space.

That number wasn’t fabricated out of thin air-it signaled that movement was coming. So, where is it? The logic that suggested things were changing wasn’t misguided.

My “Seven Pillars” article on Athlon Sports laid out why this offseason felt different.

It wasn’t unrealistic to expect targeted aggression.

But now, we’re all left wondering-are Asante Samuel Jr., Eric Kendricks, Cooper Kupp, and Will Hernandez on the way?

Or is something bigger lurking, like Joey Bosa or Trey Hendrickson? For now, the plan remains murky.

It’s early, but confusion reigns. The Cowboys may still have a masterstroke up their sleeve-or they may just be unserious.
