The Cowboys sat patiently through the first wave of free agency while monitoring the action at the safety position. Avoiding that first wave of spending was very smart on the Cowboys part even if it meant missing out on the action:
- Landon Collins defected from one NFC East rival to another, signing a monster deal worth up to $84M with Washington.
- The Cowboys were forever linked to Earl Thomas but that reported “interest” may have been just a tad oversold. Dallas isn’t interested in anything close to the four-year, $55M deal he got with Baltimore.
