In this episode of The Big D Breakdown, we’re digging deep into what might be the most pivotal season of Dak Prescott’s career. After a nightmare 2024 campaign marred by injuries and regression across the offense, the Dallas Cowboys are looking to bounce back—and all eyes are on their franchise quarterback.

We break down how a healthy Dak showed up to OTAs ready to reclaim his spot among the league's elite, why Pro Football Focus has him as a top contender for NFL Comeback Player of the Year, and how a new weapon in George Pickens could unlock a whole new dimension to the Cowboys' offense.

The Dallas Cowboys are staring down a crucial offseason after finishing the 2024 season with a disappointing 7-10 record. While the offense dealt with its share of setbacks, the real concern heading into 2025 is whether this team has done enough to fix its glaring weakness on defense—specifically in the trenches. The Cowboys made their first major move by locking in defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa to a four-year extension. From there, the front office quietly added reinforcements, signing Dante Fowler, Kenneth Murray, Solomon Thomas, and Jack Sanborn to help patch up a run defense that ranked near the bottom of the league last year.

Despite these additions, questions remain about whether Dallas has the size and power up front to handle the physicality of modern NFL offenses. With a 2025 schedule that features some of the league’s best offensive lines—including two matchups against a revamped Washington front—this group could be exposed early and often if improvements don’t continue. A potential trade for veteran defensive tackle D.J. Reader has been floated as a game-changing move, offering Dallas the kind of size and presence the line sorely lacks.

In this episode, we break down what the Cowboys have done, what they still need, and why this offseason might make or break their defensive identity heading into the new year.

In this episode of The Big D Breakdown, we’re talking about what might be the best Dallas Cowboys offseason move in years: the blockbuster trade for wide receiver George Pickens.

We break down why Pickens is the most electric WR talent Dallas has had since Dez Bryant, how Brian Schottenheimer’s new culture-first leadership is already paying off, and what this means for Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and the Cowboys’ 2025 offense. Is Pickens a risk? Sure. But in the right environment — which Dallas seems to be building — this could be the steal of the decade.

Plus, we take a look at the 2025 Cowboys draft class and why this new locker room energy may be exactly what the franchise needs to finally get over the hump.

👀 Tune in as we dissect the trade, the leadership dynamics, and whether this new Cowboys era could be one for the books.

The Dallas Cowboys selected Alabama guard Tyler Booker with their first-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, but what kind of player are they really getting? In this episode of the Locked On Cowboys podcast, we take a deep dive into Booker’s game—evaluating his tape, traits, and college production—and explore how he fits into the Cowboys' offensive scheme under Brian Schottenheimer and new OL coach Clayton Adams.

We discuss Booker’s strengths as a pass protector, his power in the run game, how he compares to players like Landon Dickerson and Trey Smith, and what this pick means for the future of the Cowboys’ offensive line. Will he be an immediate starter at right guard? How does his presence impact players like Terence Steele and Dak Prescott?

In this episode, we dive into the wild rumor that the Dallas Cowboys might trade Dak Prescott—yes, you read that correctly. While it sounds utterly ridiculous for America’s Team to let go of their franchise quarterback, recent chatter suggests the Browns, Titans, and Steelers could be potential landing spots. We unpack the logic (or lack thereof) behind these rumors, explore whether Jerry Jones might actually entertain such a move, and discuss the implications for each team. It’s a wild, hypothetical ride as we question the cost, the cap space, and the chaos that would ensue if Prescott somehow found himself on a new roster.

This episode, we break down everything Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones revealed about Dallas’ free agency plans, including their push to re-sign defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa, cornerback Jourdan Lewis, and running back Rico Dowdle. With Odighizuwa being one of the most disruptive interior defenders last season and Lewis proving to be a crucial part of the secondary, keeping them in Dallas is a priority. Plus, what does Dowdle’s breakout mean for the Cowboys’ running back room? Tune in as we discuss what these moves signal for the team’s offseason strategy and how the front office needs to back up their words with action.

With the NFL's new league year just weeks away, free agency is the talk of the town—especially for the Dallas Cowboys, who are shaking things up with a new head coach and an overhauled coaching staff. But the name that’s generating the most buzz? New offensive coordinator Klayton Adams.

Adams, who helped engineer the Arizona Cardinals’ No. 7 ranked rushing attack last season, brings a physical, aggressive, and problem-solving mentality to Dallas. In his first meeting with the media, he made his philosophy clear: "Create violence in the game. Be aggressive. Run. Hit."

In this episode, we break down:

✅ What Adams' offensive vision means for the Cowboys 🔥

✅ How his Arizona scheme overperformed despite a lack of stars 🤔

✅ Why Cowboys fans should be excited about the run game’s future 💪

✅ How this hire impacts Dak Prescott and the offense heading into 2025

Could Klayton Adams be the missing piece for the Cowboys' offense? Let's discuss!
