See which positions are deep, those positions are shaking and who may be fighting a tough battle for the Cowboys’ roster.

With the 2025 NFL Draft now in the rearview mirror, the Dallas Cowboys have a strong understanding of what they plan to do in the upcoming season. The team has more than 90 players in the game, which means there will be some action in the offseason lineup over the next few days. In fact, some names signed as signatures are actually invitations to rookie mini-training camps, while others who signed futures contracts in January didn’t grow much longer.

Now that the Comp Pick window is closed, Dallas can bring other senior help outside the organization. To determine the best investments for these efforts and US dollar investments, the forecast for the 53-man lineup is orderly.

Here, it is necessary to understand that the player should be roster locks, very safe, and possibly, the cut and cub/NFI candidates are required to cast. For now, we think there are 35 players who are locks, 3 players will start the season, and 57 players will participate in the last 35 players.
