Another week of the NFL season is in the books and we are now poised to enter the penultimate week of the 2024-25 campaign. For the Dallas Cowboys, it's the final two games until next season.

Dallas was eliminated from the postseason thanks to some late-game heroics from the Washington Commanders against the Philadelphia Eagles, so the focus shifts toward the offseason and 2025 NFL Draft.

Currently, the Cowboys are hanging onto a top 15 selection, but that will be in danger if the team continues its hot streak.

The No. 1 overall pick, meanwhile, currently belongs to the New York Giants, followed by the New England Patriots and Jacksonville Jaguars to round out the top three.
