The Dallas Cowboys have a favorable spot in the NFL waiver wire priority order entering roster cutdowns, putting them in a good position to claim key players.

The Cowboys are looking to bounce back from a disappointing 7-10 season that went off the rails long before quarterback Dak Prescott was lost to injury midseason. New head coach Brian Schottenheimer gets his first crack at commanding an entire team after spending the last three seasons as the offensive coordinator for Mike McCarthy.

With the preseason in the books, roster cuts are upon us, where the Chicago Bears have to trim their roster from 90 to 53 players before 3 p.m. CT on Tuesday. Unlike previous summers, there is just one cutdown day as opposed to gradual cuts throughout the preseason.
