The Cowboys’ second-year director of player personnel is telling Jerry Jones and Stephen Jones "I want to get tough [competitors] who are football players. They don’t care about the other stuff, and just want to play football. Guys who just play. Guys who are tough. Guys if they have a guy in front of them then I want them to help us on special teams right away."

Eschew the player who runs the 40 in a 4-point-whatever, squats 900 pounds and has the rest measurables in favor of a more grunt-ish pick. Scrap the guy who looks the part but can’t play the part; if you want to win an Academy Award you pick Kate Winslet, not Jessica Alba.

Ciskowski has devised a position-by-position set of characteristics he seeks for any player, and the consistent themes throughout every spot are willingness to work, and intelligence. It’s a value system where toughness is almost as important as talent. He is pushing in the direction of the increasingly popular, if slightly boring, tough-guy, fits our-mold football player.
