After bringing back linebacker Rolando McClain on a one-year, $3 million deal, the Dallas Cowboys' linebacking corps appear to be in great shape with a few months to go until training camp.
However, according to Richie Whitt of NBC 5 DFW, re-signing McClain doesn't mean the team is going to shy away from looking for help at linebacker in the 2015 NFL Draft:
Considering (Sean) Lee’s litany of injuries and McClain’s kamikaze style, obviously the Cowboys still need help at the position. They signed Keith Rivers, Jasper Brinkley and Andrew Gachkar in free agency and still have Kyle Wilber and Cameron Lawrence as returning veterans. Again, those pieces are much more appealing with McClain as the anchor. But I’m still not sure drafting another linebacker is out of the question.
While this doesn't mean that the Cowboys are going to expend an early pick on the position, keep an eye on the middle to later rounds as a potential spot for Dallas to look linebacker.
