It is fair to say that the Dallas Cowboys had a disappointing season in 2020. The team missed out on the playoffs for the second consecutive year and headed into the offseason with a plethora of needs that were heavily skewed to the defensive side of the ball. Despite a relatively quiet start to the free agency period, the organizations’ needs are more clear now heading into the 2021 NFL Draft than they were even just a couple of days ago. Dallas kicked off the unofficial start to free agency by mostly focusing on special teams before turning their attention to shoring up the defensive line.
