Should the Cowboys change their approach in free agency?

2018 Draft: Cowboys should prioritize defense over offense.
The Dallas Cowboys have an identity. They are a power running team with a strong offensive line and they intend to pound the ball at their opponent to break their will.

That is why they have invested so many 1st round picks…
2018 Free Agency: Should the Cowboys look to secure David Irving long term?
The Dallas Cowboys pass rush improved dramatically last season. The key contributor in that department was Demarcus Lawrence, who emerged to become the long sought after “war daddy” that Jerry Jones has been looking for.
