Dallas Cowboys pre-training camp position breakdown series, looking at the edge rushers

Once upon a time it was impossible for the Dallas Cowboys to sack an opposing quarterback. 10 years ago come January the Cowboys watched helplessly as then-Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers dissected them with an injured calf. DeMarcus Lawrence was finishing his rookie season at the time, with quite the moment to commemorate it a week prior against the Detroit Lions (both moments, for those who remember), and Dallas was relying on players like Jeremy Mincey to be the difference-maker.

We have come quite a long way since then to the point that Micah Parsons has made sacking the quarterback a common and expected occurrence.
