Cowboys Headlines: Eberflus on plan for Micah, Overstreet putting big chip on DBs’ shoulders

The Cowboys put their new coordinators and assistants in front of the media on Tuesday, and they made some strong first impressions. We’ll get into what Matt Eberflus wants his defense to focus on and how he plans to weaponize Micah Parsons to the fullest. Then, defensive backs coach David Overstreet wants his corners and safeties to take things very personally in the Cowboys secondary. Finally, tight ends coach Lunda Wells is one of the few returning staffers, but his reason for coming back may be something of a shock.

Elsewhere, we’ll talk franchise tags and why the Cowboys probably shouldn’t use it this year on a defensive standout, even if it means watching him leave. Zack Martin could be on the move; we’ll try to forecast his best fit. And free agency could bring a legitimate WR2 to Dallas… to play alongside his brother. We’re looking at two mock drafts that beef up the D-line: one with a highly-rated prospect, and one with a blockbuster trade. We’ll look into Jake Ferguson’s troubling dropoff in 2024, we’ll tell you who might be the most likely salary-cap casualty in Dallas, and we’ll pinpoint the one reason why the Cowboys are below the midway mark in the offseason power rankings. All that, plus what Tyler Guyton needs to fix right now, and a former Cowboys assistant finally gets his long-awaited coordinator job.
