Why the Cowboys’ plans at linebacker will help dictate their entire offseason

Linebacker is one of the Dallas Cowboys’ most uncertain position groups. Currently, the Cowboys have four linebackers on their roster - Leighton Vander Esch, Jaylon Smith, Francis Bernard and Luke Gifford. There are a lot of question marks among that group of players.

There’s a chance the Cowboys could bring back one of their three linebacker free agents. Veterans Sean Lee, Joe Thomas, and Justin March will hit the open market, but there’s a chance we’ve seen the last of these three in Dallas as players.

The Cowboys have spent large investments at the linebacker spot, one in the form of a $68 million extension, and the other as a top 20 draft pick.
