The Dallas Cowboys met with big names like Johnny Manziel at this year's NFL Scouting Combine, but there's no doubt they also left with some notes on later-round gems.
Dallas has two seventh-round picks in this year's draft along with its fifth. They were certainly taking a look at some players who might be sneaky picks in those rounds this year. It wouldn't be all too surprising if many of those names were for the defensive side of the ball, either.
Jason Garrett's team finished just No. 24 against the run and an abysmal No. 30 against the pass last year. The head coach and his scouts will be looking heavily at getting some young defensive help in this year's draft while sprinkling in some offensive guys here and there.
With all the 40-yard-dash times recorded, interviews conducted and notes recorded, let's take a look at which later-round gems the Cowboys should have noticed at the combine.
