What is the philosophy behind the front office's choice in waiting until the last minute to re-sign players? Is there an advantage to this that just hasn't been realized?

I completely get the idea George Pickens may be a one-year rental, but there seem to be a lot of veterans also on one-year deals. I also realize that cap considerations have to be made, but when you have a lot of players on one-year deals, aren't you a hostage to free agency every year? And surely this must hamper continuity as you have to go backward to go forward each year?

Do you think the Cowboys are still in the market to add some veteran help in the secondary? I know Stephon Gilmore's name has been thrown around a bit, especially since he has been seen at the team's facility this off season. Last time I heard, Dallas still has north of $30 million in cap space. 

Asim Richards has been mentioned multiple times on the podcasts about competing with Tyler Guyton for the left tackle spot. Do you think that will be a realistic competition? 

It's interesting that Conor Riley, the Cowboys' new offensive line coach, coached both in college. Could we see different roles for them this year? 

Is it ideal that a head coach call offensive or defensive plays as well? Or should a head coach simply oversee the team and delegate play-calling to the coordinators? Does a head coach's overall job performance suffer when he calls plays, especially in his first year on the job? 

What if Parsons just isn't a true leader? Is it fair to ask him to be one?

Are you satisfied with the backup quarterbacks, Joe Milton and Will Grier? Have these two QBs shown enough that causes you to believe they are as good as or better than Cooper Rush? Right now, I don't think so, but you may have a different opinion. Is the solution to the backup QB position already in place? 

Whether it be seeing Patrick Mahomes play, visiting Las Vegas or some other reason, which game are you personally looking forward to the most on the 2025 Cowboys schedule? 

Talk about jumping right into the fire. With a new coaching staff, new players and key players returning from injury, the Cowboys certainly didn't catch a break from the NFL in having to play their first game of the season at the reigning Super Bowl champs. Think Brian Schottenheimer and his team will be up to the task? Or is this going to be a very rude awakening? 

I believe that year one of the Brian Schottenheimer era is the best chance for the Cowboys to get to the Super Bowl. This is when everyone is jumping up and down, ready to learn Schotty football and run through a wall for the coach.  Am I off base here? And for the record, I think the Cowboys do make a run and at least reach the NFC Championship.
