Some have Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq ranked among the top 12 prospects, but would the Cowboys really add to a position that is already in good shape when there are so many other glaring concerns?  <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not saying the Cowboys absolutely won&#8217;t take an offensive skill position. If Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love is available, there will likely be some discussions, although I hope they don&#8217;t go that route. A sidekick to Javonte Williams on an already high-powered offense would seem a luxury at this point.  <\/p>\n<p>But fortunately for the Cowboys \u2013 in terms of the draft, at least \u2013 they need so much for Christian Parker&#8217;s new defense that there will likely be plenty of good talent on that side of the ball still available when they go on the clock.  <\/p>\n<p>So yes, they can indeed pass on a skilled offensive player and probably should. Because Dallas simply has to improve its defense if the team is to have any hope of a lengthy playoff run in 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kurt: We annually hear talk about just grabbing the best player available but positional needs are always taken&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":228701,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[102,104,103,1090,3488,3486,3487],"class_list":{"0":"post-228700","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas","8":"tag-dallas","9":"tag-dallas-headlines","10":"tag-dallas-news","11":"tag-news-all-news","12":"tag-news-kurt-daniels","13":"tag-news-mailbag","14":"tag-news-nick-eatman"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/228700","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=228700"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/228700\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/228701"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=228700"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=228700"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=228700"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
