Cowboys lack of capital spent at DT continues to rear ugly head

The Dallas Cowboys have struggled with their interior defensive line, ranking 27th in the league in run-stop-win-rate. The team's first-round pick, Mazi Smith, didn't make an immediate impact, but the Cowboys are known for being patient with their first-round picks. Smith's playing time decreased towards the end of the season, and a new defensive coordinator may be needed for his development. On the other hand, third-round pick Osa Odighizuwa has been a standout player, ranking fourth in pass rush win rate among interior linemen. The Cowboys should consider extending him. Fourth-round rookie Viliami Junior Fehoko did not play at all this season, but his versatility could make him a key piece for the defense in the future. The Cowboys need to invest more in their interior defensive line to improve their run defense. They have spent draft capital on the position, but more attention and resources are needed. The team's salary cap situation is tight, but extending quarterback Dak Prescott could create the necessary space to address their needs.
