    Over the weekend, news surfaced that the Dallas Cowboys were beginning to show some interest in Minnesota Vikings free agent defensive end Jared Allen. Now, that interest has seemed to pick up with an official visit scheduled for Tuesday.

    According to Ed Werder of ESPN, the visit will include members of the Cowboys coaching staff.

    The Cowboys have struggled to add any notable players during the free agency period because of their lack of salary cap space, but adding Allen would be a good start to greatly improving their front seven.

    We all know that they need it.

    Dallas is also interested in defensive tackle Henry Melton, so their pursuit to improve the defensive front could begin to heat up.
