5 biggest swings the Cowboys could make at the WR position

2. Sign Odell Beckham Jr.

Jerry Jones has swung at Odell Beckham Jr. as recently as last offseason. The Cowboys wisely chose to trade for Brandin Cooks instead, but Beckham is among the top free agents left standing after the first wave of free agency.

Dallas could use a true X receiver to complement CeeDee Lamb and Brandin Cooks, but signing a slippery route-runner like Beckham would only create more space in Mike McCarthy's offense. It's not saying much, but Beckham following two ACL surgeries to the same knee would be an upgrade over Michael Gallup.

In 14 games for the Ravens last season, Beckham caught 35 passes for 565 yards and three touchdowns. The Cowboys have more talent at WR than Baltimore, so it stands to reason Odell would be more productive in Dallas. His Pro Bowl days are long behind him, but OBJ can still be a serviceable WR3.

3. Sign Michael Thomas

Another big swing the Cowboys could take in free agency is to sign former New Orleans Saints star Michael Thomas.

Like many guys who hit NFL free agency, there's a reason why Thomas is available this offseason. He hasn't been overly available the last handful of years for the Saints. Playing in 20 games over the last four years, to say Thomas' availability has been questionable would be a vast understatement.

But you never know when you're going to catch a guy in the right one-year window, and his injury history will dictate a very team-friendly contract. It's a dart worth throwing if you're the Dallas Cowboys.
