The Luke Schoonmaker Experiment May Finally End<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">I don\u2019t know a single Cowboys fan who didn\u2019t shake their head in disappointment when the team selected blocking tight end Luke Schoonmaker with their second-round pick in 2023.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Also a former Michigan Wolverine, Schoonmaker\u2019s average all-around player profile in college has carried over to the NFL, and he has struggled to stand out in a tight end room headed by the now highly paid Jake Ferguson.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Realistically, he\u2019s been passed up on the depth chart by Brevyn Spann-Ford as well<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SleeperCowboys\/status\/2037603908911305080\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Cowboys will host Vanderbilt TE Eli Stowers on a 30 visit, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/_RyanFowler_\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">@_RyanFowler_<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Dallas is also showing a lot of interest in this year\u2019s tight end class in the draft; if they find a player they like, it\u2019ll likely mean the end of Schoonmaker\u2019s Cowboys career.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">3. Markquese Bell Could Be Odd-Man-Out In Safety Room<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">A former Florida A&amp;M product, Markquese Bell, has more than exceeded expectations as a Cowboy, but his tenure may be on the brink of ending.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">This offseason, new defensive coordinator Christian Parker has, as expected, prioritized a secondary rebuild. Guys like Jalen Thompson, PJ Locke, Cobie Durant, and Derrion Kendrick have all joined the secondary, and veteran Malik Hooker was restructured to stay put, too.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Bell is one additional guy coming in away from being on the chopping block; Dallas can\u2019t afford to pay him with that many cooks in the safety room\u2019s kitchen.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">If they draft Caleb Downs or Dillon Thieneman, it\u2019s all but over for Bell in Dallas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"2.
