Why the Cowboys’ linebacker group might be one of the most important units on the roster in 2026. We break down the full LB depth chart, who we trust, and where the concerns still lie.

Plus, Stephen Jones gives insight into how Dallas feels about the return from the Micah Parsons trade and provides an update on the George Pickens situation—what it means for the offense moving forward.

We also dive into the biggest challenge facing the Cowboys this season (yes, the schedule is brutal) and identify the players under the most pressure to deliver in 2026.

Why seeing inside the Cowboys war room might completely change how you feel about Stephen Jones running the show. Today on DLLS Cowboys, we break down the newly released draft room footage and what it reveals about decision-making at the top.

We also go player for player at safety and map out how the depth chart is shaping up heading into camp — who’s locked in, who’s fighting, and what battles matter most.

Plus, the rookie we’re most excited about not named Caleb Downs (and why you should be too), and a look at whether anyone on this roster has a real shot to take home Rookie of the Year honors.

All that and more on today’s show. Drop your thoughts in the comments and let’s talk Cowboys.

The 2026 NFL calendar has barely begun and already an intra-locker room fued is threatening to derail the Dallas Cowboys’ season. Caleb Downs wore #2 at Ohio State, but he’s a rookie. Cobie Durant signed with the team in March and took the number. Who should get it? What lengths should Downs go to to secure his preferred jersey? (This description presented by sarcasm.)
