3 free agents that would cement the Cowboys as Super Bowl contenders

2. Robbie Gould, K

The Cowboys only have one kicker on their roster and it's Tristian Vizcaino.

Vizcaino hasn't gotten many opportunities to kick in the NFL but has been pretty accurate on field goals in a small sample size. In 2020, he went 3-for-3 on field goal attempts with the 49ers in one game and 6-for-7 with the Chargers in 2021 in six games. Last season, he went 2-for-2 in one game with the Cardinals.

On extra points, he's 15-for-20 overall in his career. He missed all five of his extra points with the Chargers in 2021 -- going 10-for-15 that season with Los Angeles.

Vizcaino will have a realistic shot to make the Week 1 roster, but the Cowboys will also likely bring in a veteran kicker to compete for the spot. After the NFL Draft, owner Jerry Jones said the team will "be looking at a more veteran kicker."

There's no one better on the free agent market than Robbie Gould.

Gould has kicked 18 years in the NFL and his recent season suggests he still has plenty left in the tank. He went 27-for-32 on field goal attempts and 50-for-51 on extra points during the regular season in 2023. In the playoffs, he went 8-for-8 on field goals and 5-for-5 on extra points.

The Cowboys might remember Gould in both playoff losses over the past two seasons. The former 49ers kicker went 3-for-3 in the first Divisional Round meeting in 2022 between the two teams and 4-for-4 in last year's playoff meeting.

Gould has been as good as gold in his career with an 86.5% field goal conversion rate and a 97.5% extra point conversion rate. Having an automatic kicker like this will matter in big games in the playoffs.
