## Resource

ESPN’s latest roster ranking puts the Cowboys at 14th — a number that might sting at first glance, but their reasoning holds up. The team’s offense, led by CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, is primed to be one of the NFL’s deadliest passing units. But the defense? That’s where the real story lies. Cornerbacks remain a glaring question mark, with talent mixed in with uncertainty and health concerns. Rookie Caleb Downs could be the game-changer — if he brings range, versatility, and poise. While the ranking feels low, ESPN’s caution is spot-on: the Cowboys have the talent, but the defense must prove itself on the field.
