Mailbag: Rather Acquire Veteran Safety Or Sign D-Law? Adding Another Back?

Lethbridge, Alberta

I am no expert on the intricacies of our salary cap situation, but if the Cowboys had to choose between resigning Demarcus Lawrence to a long-term deal, or acquiring a player like Earl Thomas, which do you think would be more beneficial to the Cowboys' defense?

Bryan: This is a really good question but I’d lean toward signing Lawrence long term. As helpful as the safety would be, having a pass rusher means a lot to your defense. I have always believed that you build your team with a quarterback, then pass rusher and then left tackle.
