The foundation for the roster in this upcoming season is already starting to solidify.

The Cowboys might not be quite done with the trade market and perhaps get involved once more in free agency after the draft concludes. But the core of the roster is here, and we start our review with the quarterbacks. Dak Prescott Dak Prescott is entering his eleventh season as the starting quarterback for the Cowboys.

It feels like yesterday when Prescott stepped in for an injured Tony Romo and led the team to a 13-3 record as a rookie. Since then, Prescott has tallied prolific numbers under center for America’s Team. Last season, he set the franchise records for most career completions and passing yards.

When assessing Prescott against his NFL counterparts, he is easily one of the best and most cerebral quarterbacks in the game. His ability to scan the field and connect on big plays with his receivers allows the offense to rival the best in the NFL. Yet, at this stage in his career, something still evades him and the fanbase.
