Dallas traded Micah Parsons to Green Bay, forcing a rapid reshuffle of the Cowboys’ edge group. Dante Fowler Jr. takes on a primary role while Donovan Ezeiruaku, Marshawn Kneeland, Sam Williams, and James Houston are charged with bigger workloads immediately. Without Parsons, Dallas leans more on interior pressure from Osa Odighizuwa and company, but blitzing remains limited under Matt Eberflus, and cornerback health adds to the volatility. Fantasy angles hinge on which youngsters seize opportunities early.

Overall, Fowler and Williams look like the safest floor bets for fantasy value, with Ezeiruaku and Kneeland carrying upside as breakout candidates if they adapt quickly. The interior rush and pass defense health will largely drive defensive fantasy outputs, making Week 1 snap shares and opponent specific game plans critical to monitor all season.
