IRVING, Texas - Usually at draft time, secrets are so closely guarded at Valley Ranch that you wouldn't even bother asking someone who knows these things what the Cowboys will do when they go on the clock.
There are two reasons it's a stupid question. First off, they might not know just yet. Secondly (and most importantly), they wouldn't tell you anyway. But when a conversation hits that sort of awkward pause and you're out of real questions, you'll try anything. So you ask, and while you don't get anything concrete, you still learn something.
This is how we learned what kind of player the Cowboys will pick, based on the operative word used by someone who wasn't really trying to say anything profound.
"We'll pick someone we're comfortable with."
