When the Cowboys made the decision to franchise tag Dalton Schultz, it dropped the tight end position down several notches on the list of needs this offseason. However, Blake Jarwin’s release creates a need for depth. While Sean McKeon and the recently re-signed Jeremy Sprinkle provide that, Dallas could opt to draft someone in the later rounds too.
