Kenny Moore, who signed a $33 million, four-year contract with the Indianapolis Colts in 2019, is set to become a free agent and depart the team shortly. The Dallas Cowboys are the only NFL team that makes sense for a cornerback.

The Cowboys proved their dominance only last season, as they won the NFC East division for the first time since 2021. All things considered, their 12-5 record earned them the second playoff seed.

The Cowboys have the opportunity to avoid another heartbreaking defeat as free agency approaches. Even if the team’s offense and defense rank in the top five, adding free agents to strengthen the latter is always a positive development.
The Dallas Cowboys Should Take Kenny Moore Into Account in Free Agency

The Cowboys need to keep an eye on a few names at this moment for free agency. In his piece for ESPN, Aaron Schatz outlines why Dallas should draft Kenny Moore of the Colts for the upcoming season:

But with Diggs and DaRon Bland holding down the outside, they might use an upgrade at slot cornerback, where Stephon Gilmore and Jourdan Lewis are both free agents. Moore is arguably the best slot corner in the league. Among all corners with at least 300 coverage snaps, he was ranked 11th in terms of coverage DVOA the previous season.

The Colts were third in the slot but rated 25th overall when it came to covering wide receivers outside the zone. With 43 total run stops and assists, Moore is second among all corners, which also helps in run defense. Among cornerbacks with at least 15 combined run tackles last season, Schatz noted that his average run tackle came after a gain of just 2.9 yards, ranking him second in the NFL.
