## Resource

Two overlooked Cowboys — rookie WR Anthony Smith and second-year LB Shemar James — could explode onto the scene this season. Smith, a seventh-rounder, dazzles with big-play potential and efficiency on short routes, but needs to lock down catches to survive in a crowded receiver room. James, facing thin linebacker depth, showed explosive tackling ability last year but must fix mental lapses and coverage inconsistencies to earn regular snaps. Both are replaceable dark horses with raw talent — if they deliver consistency, they could become breakout stars fans can’t ignore.
