Though they were relatively quiet in free agency this year the Cowboys did make a significant move at defensive tackle. Dallas chose not to re-sign Nick Hayden, who’d started all but one game over the last three years, and instead brought in fifth-year veteran Cedric Thornton from Philadelphia.

In 2013, the Eagles switched to the 3-4 scheme and Thornton emerged as a starting defensive end.
