Sooner rather than later, the Dallas Cowboys will start searching for long-term solutions at wide receiver. Naturally, it is anticipated that CeeDee Lamb would eventually sign a large contract extension that will keep him in Dallas for the foreseeable future.
But there’s not much wide receiver depth after Lamb. Dallas is associated with a lightning-quick wide receiver who would be a good complement to Lamb because of this.
An incredibly quick wide receiver is being linked to the Dallas Cowboys.
Today’s article from Bleacher Reports’ NFL Scouting Department identified Evan Stewart of Oregon as the Dallas Cowboys’ next big wide receiver:
NFL Draft, 2025: Oregon WR Evan Stewart
Even if the team extends Lamb’s contract, owner Jerry Jones will probably be considering this year’s wide receiver class in the draft because Jalen Tolbert is only signed through 2025 and Brandin Cooks is set to become a free agent soon.
The Oregon product has the potential to have several effects on the offense, so the front office should investigate him.
According to Damian Parson of The Draft Network, Stewart “projects as an alignment-versatile receiver who thrives on winning with quickness and attacking all levels of the defense.” “Like Jordan Addison, he will adjust to the NFL more easily if he lands with an established WR1.”
“Stewart’s versatile skill set fits well with an offense that emphasizes pre-snap movement and quick, short throws to set up isolated deep shots.”
Stewart was formerly a five-star prospect and attended Texas A&M for two years. Despite several ailments, five different quarterbacks, and numerous coaches, he caught 91 receptions for 1,163 yards and six touchdowns. Less than a month later, in December 2023, he signed a contract with the Ducks through the transfer site. Given that he was the top-ranked wide receiver recruit in the past, it is no secret that Stewart has big hopes for Eugene.
Should Stewart have the kind of season that many anticipate, the Dallas Cowboys may be vying for Stewart’s draft pick in April of next year.
