Cowboys explore NFL draft prospects Ashton Jeanty and Cam Skattebo to address potential Rico Dowdle departures

With the Dallas Cowboys out of the playoff picture, attention turns to the NFL draft where prospects like Ashton Jeanty and Cam Skattebo are being discussed for the 13th overall pick, especially to fill the potential running back void left by Rico Dowdle if he departs in free agency. Skattebo, who had a standout college season with 1,568 rushing yards and 19 touchdowns, emerged as a potential target, though there is concern about his ability to translate success to the NFL level. The Cowboys face a pressing decision to either re-sign Dowdle, who excelled with over 1,000 rushing yards, or secure a reliable running back through the draft.
