Before the Dallas Cowboys’ training camp fully gets underway, here are 10 new faces you need to know.
1. Jasper Brinkley (LB)
How they got him: Agreed to terms on a two-year, $6.5 million deal
Brinkley actually signed with the Cowboys because of defensive coordinator Rod Miranelli. Brinkley told Cowboys insider Jon Machota that he saw Miranelli’s work while he was a Viking and the defensive coach was with Chicago.

2. Darren McFadden (RB)
How they got him: Signed two-year, $5.8 million deal
The departure of DeMarco Murray leaves a whole lot of carries for the Cowboys’ running back platoon. Can McFadden stay healthy and perform at a higher level behind the highly-touted Dallas offensive line?
3. Andrew Gachkar (LB)
How they got him: Signed two-year, $5.5 million deal
The former San Diego Charger had four main reasons of why he chose to sign with the Cowboys this offseason. Machota says Gachkar’s immediate impact area will be on special teams.
4. Greg Hardy (DE)

How they got him: Signed one-year deal worth up to $13.1 million
Where to start? Hardy’s signing sparked all kinds of national reaction and not much has changed since. His reduced suspension did much of the same. The Cowboys will be without their new defensive end for the first four games of the season, but that’s a far cry from the initial 10 games.
Executive vice president Stephen Jones was recently asked about any similarities in the decision process of signing Hardy with Hall of Famer Charles Haley. For more on that, click here.
