Local Prospects Arriving For Dallas Day
Posted by nickeatman at 4/13/2009 10:23 AM CDT on truebluefanclub.com
With the draft now less than two weeks away, the Cowboys should have a good idea at some of the top players who will be available. Now, they’re taking a closer look at some middle-round players to some possible undrafted free agents.
The Cowboys are holding their annual “Dallas Day” on Monday here at Valley Ranch, where they have invited several local prospects for a workout at the team’s facilities. These players either played college or high school football within a 100-mile radius of the complex.
However, the workout is still intended for lower-round players, meaning you won’t see players such as Matthew Stafford, Michael Crabtree or Jason Smith – all Dallas-area players, here at Valley Ranch.
But there are some big names on the invitee list, including a pair of quarterbacks – Missouri’s Chase Daniel and Sam Houston State’s Rhett Bomar, a former Oklahoma quarterback.
Other players who were invited include Texas DE Henry Melton, Texas Tech DE Brandon Williams, TCU running back Aaron Brown, Baylor wide receiver Thomas White and Oklahoma defensive back Lendy Holmes.
In the past, the Cowboys have found some players here at Dallas Day. In 2004, the club drafted both Patrick Crayton and Jacques Reeves in the seventh round. The Cowboys have also signed players such as Tyson Thompson and Daniel Polk, who were at Dallas Day as well.
