Is it time for the Dallas Cowboys to trade for a safety?

For years, one of the biggest positions of need for the Dallas Cowboys seems to be at safety. Yet, season after season, the Cowboys’ brass seemingly ignore the issue or address it with late-round draft fliers.

Dallas’ two current starting safeties are Jeff Heath and Xavier Woods. Heath was an undrafted rookie signing out of Saginaw Valley back in 2013. He started nine games as a rookie, then spent the next three years mainly as a special teams ace.

Heath has made some key plays for the Cowboys in the past, leading the team in interceptions in both 2015 (2) and 2017 (3).
