HaHa Clinton-Dix, S, Dallas Cowboys
It is rare to find an immediate starter on either side of the football on such a low-cost deal, but the Dallas Cowboys accomplished just that, signing HaHa Clinton-Dix to a one-year deal worth just $4 million with $2.5 guaranteed.
There was a massive need at the safety position for the Dallas Cowboys, having lost safety Jeff Heath to the Las Vegas Raiders in free agency. In Clinton-Dix they get a versatile safety who has shown over the past two seasons tremendous growth as a coverage defender. During his time with the Green Bay Packers, Clinton-Dix surrendered an average of ten yards or more per each reception in each of his four seasons. However, the past two years that average dropped to 9.1 and 9.2 yards per reception each season. Furthermore, while his coverage grade from Pro Football Focus remained below 70.0 in each of his first four seasons, that number jumped to 82.0 in 2018 and 75.5 in 2019. The Cowboys are getting a much-improved safety that seems to be coming into his own as a coverage defender, for a very team-friendly deal. Tremendous value.
