4. Dallas Cowboys

The Dallas Cowboys selected linebacker Jaylon Smith in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft, knowing that he would likely miss all of 2016. Well, he saw his first action in the NFL this year. While his comeback story is incredible, his play on the field is not.

While the Cowboys have Anthony Hitchens and Sean Lee, they also have injury issues on defense. This has lead to Jaylon Smith getting a lot of playing time, and with Ezekiel Elliot likely to miss six games at some point, the Cowboys will need their defense to step up.

In order for the defense to step up and become a strength of the team, the Cowboys need to make their linebackers the strength of the defense. They already have a decent defensive backfield and Demarcus Lawrence is playing really well this year on the defensive line.

Signing Bowman could turn their defense into a monster. With the next six games featuring the Washington Redskins, the Kansas City Chiefs, the Atlanta Falcons, and the Philadelphia Eagles, the defense will have to be a monster for the team to stay a contender.
