The Cowboys have been linked with several big free agency targets this offseason, but they haven't been linked with one in particular.
Trying to figure out who the Dallas Cowboys could target in free agency is an impossible task.
Given that Jerry Jones' "bust the budget" comment is ringing in our ears, that means anyone and everyone is a potential option for Dallas.
Granted, there are several defensive needs the front office has to address, so it can't pour all its resources into a single signing.
We have seen rumors and reports about Trey Hendrickson and Maxx Crosby. Both would signal Dallas' aggressive intent to overhaul the defense for Christian Parker.
However, both would require some serious financial investment, not to mention, in Crosby's case, parting ways with draft capital.
Both Crosby and Hendrickson are going to be expensive, but even if one is signed, it won't stop Dallas from adding more players.
But who would Dallas' ideal free agent signing be?
Fox Sports' Ben Arthur thinks it's Odafe Oweh from the Los Angeles Chargers.
"Trading Micah Parsons had a devastating impact on the Cowboys’ defense," Arthur wrote. "Jadeveon Clowney and Dante Fowler are also set to hit free agency. With at least 7.5 sacks in back-to-back seasons, Oweh would give new Dallas defensive coordinator Christian Parker some juice on the edge.
"Money could be a concern for the Cowboys, who are not typically major players in free agency, but restructuring some contracts could give the team some financial flexibility to pursue a higher-ticket free agent like Oweh."
Again, we have to address it. Money isn't a concern.
Jerry stated he is likely to mortgage some of the future this offseason, so any deal Dallas wants to do, it can.
For Oweh, Spotrac.com has his calculated market value at $19.3 million, with a proposed three-year, $57 million contract potentially coming his way.
Pricey, but that won't break the bank.
Plus, it would give Parker an outside linebacker who can also moonlight as a pass rusher, as evidenced by his 7.5 sacks for the Chargers under Jesse Minter in 2025.
He only started twice for the Chargers, and in his five years in the league, has just 27 starts, but the talent is there.
And the Cowboys love players to be versatile, and Oweh fits that mold.
He is a little pricey, but the Cowboys need quality starters who can come in from Day 1 and make a difference.
And that's exactly what Oweh would do.
