The\u00a0Dallas Cowboys\u00a0were\u00a0criticized rather harshly\u00a0for their work in\u00a0NFL free agency\u00a0this offseason.<\/p>\n

They made more moves this year than the prior offseason, but overall, there weren\u2019t many overwhelming signings. There are also a few holes, which could be filled in the upcoming\u00a0NFL draft.<\/p>\n

While that will be their primary source for filling out the depth chart, the Cowboys could still look for veterans in free agency. One possible fit to keep an eye on is Stephon Gilmore, the veteran cornerback who spent the 2023 campaign in Dallas.<\/p>\n

Gilmore, who spent last year with the Minnesota Vikings, was in Frisco meeting with the Cowboys on Tuesday. Executive vice president Stephen Jones confirmed there was a meeting, but didn\u2019t give any insight.<\/p>\n
