Mailbag: How Many Safeties Make The Team? La’el Collins’ Versatility?

DAVID WILKIE

With the position flex of first-round pick Byron Jones and free agent addition Corey White, could the Cowboys keep only three safeties on the roster and use Jones and White if needed back there since they can play both corner and safety? This frees up a roster spot to go long elsewhere.

Bryan: That is actually nice big-picture thinking on your part. With Jones and White playing safety you could carry an extra position player and you could also free up another roster spot if you believed that Dustin Vaughan could handle backup quarterback and move on from Brandon Weeden so that would give you two.
