We rely upon our unbroken tradition, not upon something unknown for two thousand years and suddenly found.
Nonetheless, the Dead Sea Scrolls are one more example of the acuracy of our masorah-tradition, since we see from them texts that are the same as what we use today. I recall years ago, when these scrolls were pubicized in the U.S., and a Hebrew teacher of mine had no difficulty in reading the familiar exact verses of Isaiah.
At the same time, it should be borne in mind that the Qumran area where these scrolls were found was inhabited by a tiny breakaway, non-traditional sect; so the few non-canonical writings which were also found there hold no interest for the normative Jewish tradition.
