Cowboys 2016 Free Agency: Jaye Howard Is The 1-Technique You've Been Looking For

With a combination of size and power, the former Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle could be just what Dallas has been in search of.

Ever since 2013, when the Dallas Cowboys brought in defensive coaching legend Monte Kiffin to oversee their switch from a 3-4 defense to a 4-3, the team has been in search of one elusive element, a starting caliber, 1-technique defensive tackle. Through one year under Kiffin and two under replacement Rod Marinelli, the Cowboys have tried in vain to find a run-stuffing, double-team eating, man-mountain to pair with 3-technique tackle Tyrone Crawford in their interior defensive front.
