When evaluating draft picks and free agents for the Cowboys, keep special teams in mind

It’s a subject that has been analyzed to death - the Cowboys poor special teams play. Keith O’Quinn, the Cowboy special teams coordinator from last year, was given much of the blame. But as always, when a unit is failing in the NFL, you also need to look at the players. Cowboys management obviously stuck with kicker Brett Maher much too long last year and that cost the Cowboys. Punter Chris Jones had a very poor year that was partly caused by injury and that seems like another mistake by management not to shut him down and bring in a replacement.
