The Dallas Cowboys are evaluating several critical questions as training camp progresses in Frisco, TX. Concerns include the effectiveness of the pass rush, with players like Donovan Ezeiruaku struggling and discussions of potentially acquiring veteran Maxx Crosby from the Raiders. The need for a veteran linebacker may be diminishing as rookie Jaishawn Barham impresses, alongside others like DeMarvion Overshown and Justin Barron. Additionally, second-year running back Jaydon Blue is showing strong potential to secure the RB2 spot amid competition from Phil Mafah and Malik Davis. The Cowboys continue preparations ahead of preseason and joint practices with the Rams and Saints.
