Two undrafted free agents, Traeshon Holden and Josh Kelly, were signed post-draft.<\/p>\n<p>So, many wonder where Dallas goes from here to get Lamb more help and a receiver who can impact the offense and isn&#8217;t just a &#8220;guy&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The train has not left the station if improvement is needed from what we&#8217;ve got on campus,&#8221; owner Jerry Jones said. &#8220;We don&#8217;t have to be through at receiver in any way.
