NFL Free Agency is officially here and the NFL Draft is rapidly approaching. As a result, the next few days (or even weeks) will feature at least a few Dallas Cowboys rumors. The Cowboys have made only a few moves so far, but they might not be done yet. They've also started to focus more on the NFL Draft. With that in mind, here are all of the interesting rumors and news tidbits on the Cowboys.
Will Dallas Draft Elliott?
There's no doubting that Ohio State RB Ezekiel Elliott is the top RB in the draft this year, but it's not clear if he's worth the No. 4 overall pick. However, one reporter thinks the Cowboys will take him.
I think Elliott goes to Cowboys cause Jones will think he's next Emmitt Smith behind that OL. Plus, would help Romo https://t.co/pnkSIfIpEF

It's worth mentioning that Kracz is an Eagles beat writer. Also, Jerry Jones isn't really calling the shots anymore, as Stephen Jones and Will McClay are the two top dogs now. While Elliott is an option, a defensive player makes more sense.
Here's Who Dez Bryant Wants The Cowboys To Draft
While the Cowboys' star WR has no input on the team's draft picks, he does know who he'd take.
Dez Bryant says he'd take Florida State defensive back Jalen Ramsey if he had the call for the Cowboys' fourth overall pick.

Ramsey would fill a need at corner for the Cowboys, but he might not be on the board when the Cowboys pick.
Cowboys Bringing In Dak Prescott
According to the Dallas Morning News, the Cowboys will get a visit from Mississippi State QB Dak Prescott Monday. Prescott was at the Senior Bowl, where the Cowboys got an up-close look at the QB. Prescott's stock was on the rise before being arrested for DUI. He's likely a mid-round pick.
Benson Mayowa Contract Details
The Cowboys signed Oakland Raiders DE Benson Mayowa to an offer sheet. We know now how much that offer sheet is worth.
Details on Mayowa's offer from the #Cowboys:
— Rand Getlin (@Rand_Getlin) March 18, 2016
Signing bonus 2016: $3.3M | $700K base.
2017: $2.5M base.
2018: $2.75M base
Mayowa played sparingly last year, but showed promise. The Raiders can match that offer and have the cap space to do so.
Laquon Treadwell Visit
The Cowboys could be in the market for another WR in this year's draft. The team will get a visit with Ole Miss WR Laquon Treadwell, he told NFL.com. It's one of the many visits Treadwell will take.
"I take it very seriously. I take everything at this point like this is my job and treat everything I do like it's my job," Treadwell said. "I treat everybody with respect because you never know what everybody else can do for you or what doors might open up for you. I'm excited about it all and it's nothing anybody in my family has experienced so it will be fun."
Treadwell is generally considered the draft's top WR, although there are concerns about his speed and separation ability. Dallas taking Treadwell at No. 4 overall would be a massive shocker, so this might be the team doing its due diligence in case Treadwell surprisingly slips to them in Round 2.
