## Resource

The Cowboys’ pass defense was a disaster last season, costing them playoff chances, so they swung big this offseason—drafting Caleb Downs and signing veteran Jalen Thompson to a $33M deal. Critics call Thompson a risky gamble, citing his lack of interceptions and high completion rates, but defenders argue he’s a proven, versatile safety with five full seasons as a starter and a solid track record in coverage. At just 28, he’s got plenty of upside—and honestly, he’s not even close to being worse than what Dallas had before.
