Is Dallas the ONLY team that cannot draft someone they didn't personally bring in to look at? They telegraph their top picks every year. So we now without a doubt that they will not get the best receiver available at the time, and will settle for Courtland Sutton....MISTAKE!!!

We are smarter than the rest ;)

We only put out 17 first round grades. Nailed on one!

The Cowboys are not the only team meeting with those players, especially the top 100 guys. If anything look at the guys projected to be 5th rounders to UDFA.

People pitched hissy fits about us only watching tape and talking to coaches to mask our interest in Claiborne.

People also pitched hissy fits about us broadcasting our interesting in Tony Gonzalez, telegraphing our interest in him and guaranteeing he'd never fall to within our range (or guaranteeing we'd have no leverage and would get raped in any attempt to trade up for him).

You're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't.

Jourdan Lewis wasn't a visit last year and he was a steal in the 3rd round. Dallas knew him well enough from coaching circles they were comfortable taking him. I'm sure there are a bunch of others if you look for the information.
