Honorable Mention: Davon Coleman – The second-year defensive tackle had another strong camp, just like he did a year ago when he made the team and started the first game. While there were questions surrounding his ability to duplicate his performance, Coleman did that and more. He hasn’t exactly solidified his spot on the team, but he’s making it very hard for the Cowboys to cut him.
10. Tyler Patmon – Known more for trading punches with Dez Bryant earlier in camp, and then going toe-to-toe with several Rams players in that nasty brawl, Patmon also continued to impress the coaches with his play on the field. Taking advantage of several other injuries at the position, Patmon got plenty of reps and now appears to be the Cowboys’ slot corner with Orlando Scandrick out for the year.
9. Jack Crawford – We expected a Crawford to excel in camp, and while Tyrone was very good in his own right, Jack was just as impressive. He’s not going to start, but his versatility to play both tackle and end makes him valuable to the line. When the season starts and Greg Hardy is on suspension, Crawford could be the first backup at both defensive end and the 3-technique defensive tackle.
8. Tony Romo – Again, this isn’t a ranking of top players on the team, but mainly their performances in camp. He certainly practiced more this year than the last two years, but was still limited at times. And, of course, not having Dez Bryant for a lot of practices doesn’t help. But Romo was as solid as ever, showing he still has plenty of zip on the ball and his pocket presence looked on-point as ever.
7. Zack Martin – While he might have missed a few practices near the end of camp with a neck injury, Martin was still rock-solid in the times he was on the field. This guy is just a great football player and has been since he arrived to the team last spring. Martin doesn’t lose many, if any, battles 1-on-1 and makes few mental mistakes, making him much more advanced than your average second-year pro
