NFL draft 2020: After free agency losses, Dallas Cowboys could look to reload at key positions
It didn’t take long for the gravity of NFL free agency to hit the Dallas Cowboys.
While the team kept quarterback Dak Prescott off the market by applying the franchise tag and re-signed wide receiver Amari Cooper, several starters departed in the first few days of deals. Among those who left: wide receiver Randall Cobb (Houston Texans), defensive end Robert Quinn (Chicago Bears), defensive tackle Maliek Collins (Las Vegas Raiders), cornerback Byron Jones (Miami Dolphins) and safety Jeff Heath (Raiders).Â
The Cowboys did make their moves after the losses began to mount, as they signed defensive tackles Gerald McCoy and Dontari Poe and safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix.Â
But the sequence still left Mike McCarthy with several holes to fill as he prepares for his first season as a team, and owner Jerry Jones has made it clear the organization expects to make a significant postseason push right away.
