The Dallas Cowboys are strategically bolstering their safety position through undrafted free agency (UDFA) signings. With key players like Jayron Kearse departing and others set to enter free agency soon, the Cowboys are keen to find versatile and promising prospects. This year, they signed three UDFAs: Alijah Clark from Syracuse, Zion Childress from Kentucky, and Mike Smith from Eastern Kentucky.

Clark brings solid experience across various safety roles, providing depth while being a potential practice squad candidate. Childress, although undersized, is a determined team captain who excels in coverage, likely fitting into a nickel safety role. Smith, while viewed less favorably on draft boards, boasts intriguing coverage capabilities that could surprise in camp. Although their immediate impact may be limited, their development is crucial as the Cowboys look to secure their secondary for the future.
