The Dallas Cowboys are a good drafting team. And it’s a good thing too because we all know they aren’t very active in free agency. “Build through the draft” and “keep free agent expenses to a minimum” have been Stephen Jones’ modus operandi for years now. If your player personnel department is sharp and they can draft well, this is a great strategy to employ. After all, spending money on outside free agents is a house game that largely results in overspending.
While the Cowboys approach is the right one in the mind of some fans, it’s going to be a little trickier to operate this season because as we have mentioned before, the Cowboys are a little lighter in terms of their draft capital.
