Cowboys news: Dan Quinn has convinced the Cowboys that safety is a priority

Dan Quinn seems to have convinced the Cowboys to put resources towards a position they have long ignored.

New Cowboys’ defensive coordinator Dan Quinn has seemingly convinced the Cowboys to make safety a priority.

Hallelujah.

Since 2013, the Cowboys had at least one undrafted free agent starting at safety. Overall, their safety play has been average at best during that span.

The Cowboys haven’t had a good pair of safeties since Darren Woodson and Roy Williams in 2002 and 2003. Last year, they started a pair of sixth-round picks: Xavier Woods and Donovan Wilson.
