For many years now, the Cowboys' organization hasn't been very adept at picking and choosing defensive backfields nor LBs with the knack of executing pass coverage very effectively. Perhaps, in part, it has had much to do with our pass rush being anywhere from average to less than same. We have also tended to undervalue the FS position, choosing to emphasize run coverage rather than paying due attention to acquiring those players proficient in thwarting our opponents' passing game. That needs to change.

Meant to respond to the thread "question of poor pass defense." Color my face red.
