Dallas Cowboys
Key additions: LB Anthony Spencer (franchised), LB Justin Durant, C Phil Costa (re-signed)
Key losses: LB Victor Butler, TE John Phillips, LB Dan Connor, S Gerald Sensabaugh
Analysis: Dallas was penalized for violating salary-cap rules, which has obviously limited the Cowboys' ability to enhance their roster. And although Spencer should fit as a defensive end in a wide alignment in Dallas' new 4-3 defense, he, too, was very expensive to retain via the franchise tag. The Cowboys simply did not have any money to spend, and, therefore, there just isn't much to analyze here. However, after locking up Tony Romo to a huge long-term deal, some signings could be coming soon. Still, Dallas could really use a big-time draft class.
Grade: C-
