Polarizing Cowboys trade pickup hasn't played a snap and doubts are already piling up

The Dallas Cowboys didn't waste any time digging deep this offseason for cost-effective players on the defensive side of the ball. Losing Eric Kendricks in free agency and DeMarvion Overshown to injury prompted the Joneses to grab Kenneth Murray Jr. from the Tennessee Titans for basically pennies.

This move was not well-received by the Cowboys faithful. While Murray captained the Titans last season and has posted sparkling tackling numbers, he's been a woeful run defender throughout his career. He has the potential to make a big impact, but only if Matt Eberflus is able to harness some of his reckless habits.
