5 WRs the Cowboys should consider signing ahead of 2022 NFL seasonĀ
The Dallas Cowboys had one of the best wide receiver groups last year, but that's no longer the case ahead of the 2022 NFL season. They traded Amari Cooper to the Cleveland Browns during the offseason, turning one of their biggest strengths into a relative weakness.
The Cowboys signed James Washington during the free agency period, but he fractured his foot in training camp and will be unavailable for the early part of the season. He will join Michael Gallup on the sidelines, who is still recovering from knee surgery and is unlikely to be ready for Week 1.
While CeeDee Lamb has already shown superstar potential, the rest of their depth at the position consists of unproven youngsters. The Cowboys would be wise to add another veteran to their roster to give quarterback Dak Prescott another weapon to work with.
So, here are five potential candidates to be that additional WR for the Cowboys.
#1 - Cole Beasley
Cole Beasley makes a ton of sense for the Cowboys right now. Prior to spending the last three seasons with the Buffalo Bills, he spent the first seven years of his career with the Cowboys.
Beasley's final three seasons in Dallas featured Dak Prescott as his quarterback when he combined for 176 receptions for 1,819 yards and 12 touchdowns. The chemistry the two have already built together makes him a logical addition to their offense.
#2 - Will Fuller
Will Fuller has established himself as a deep threat wide receiver. He has averaged nearly 15 yards per reception during his career with 24 touchdowns in just 55 games played.
Fuller's skillset would be a welcome addition to the Cowboys offense, as they are currently missing a true deep threat. Fuller would help stretch the field and open up the opposing defense.
