(Throughout the spring, DallasCowboys.com will be providing live reports from NFL Pro Days at college campuses around the country. On Thursday, David Helman was present at TCU, where highly-touted receiver Josh Doctson headlined the Horned Frogs’ Pro Day workouts).

FORT WORTH – It’s been a bit of a different road for Josh Doctson than the vast majority of highly-coveted draft prospects.

Of course, not every player to catch the eye of NFL scouts was a five-star athlete or a high school All-American. First-round draft picks come from a variety of different paths. Having said that, it’s pretty remarkable that Doctson is on the cusp of the first-round as a TCU walk-on who rose from scout team to first-team All-American.

“I just think about still being the walk-on – understanding that I was given an opportunity, and I’m being given another opportunity, hopefully, at the end of April,” Doctson said Thursday from TCU’s annual Pro Day. “I’m just continuing the things I did to get here and continuing on to the NFL.”

Doctson was lightly recruited out of high school and walked on with the Horned Frogs after a short stint at Wyoming. He exploded into the national consciousness with 144 catches for 2,345 yards and 25 total touchdowns in his final two college seasons.
