Remember that Coin Toss in February

[nathanlt]

There's another level to the story. Them picking Mosely allowed them to give up on and trade Rolando McClain. Had they won the toss and taken Martin, they may have decided to keep McClain. We may not have either of them two if that coin went the other way. If that happened, Dallas probably would not have even played last Sunday.

Wow, what a coin toss! The Cowboys won TWICE!!

Doesn't mean Baltimore would have taken him...and they got a pretty darn good player in Mosley

I really can't see Baltimore taking a guard in the first. They are really solid at G and it would be odd to take a G in the first when you've got arguably the league's best G already.

I remember some of the "championship"and " Super Bowl " responses in discussions about that won coin toss . Wouldn't it be fitting if Martin was part of the anchor that led us there

And did it against the Ravens to come full circle.

I forgot all about that coin toss until my co-worker, who is a Ravens fan, mentioned it. That was the coin toss between Balt and Dallas for the 16th or 17th pick. Whoever made the call on the coin toss for the Cowboys needs to be congratulated on winning it. My co-worker wanted the Ravens to take Zack Martin with that pick and they would have had it with the right call. Numerous mocks had Zack Martin going to Balt and it seems like there was interest in Martin from Balt.

We got the best player in the 2014 draft in Zack Martin in my opinion. And, perhaps all made possible with a little help from lady luck during a coin toss.

Anyone know who made the call heads or tails for the Cowboys?

That coin toss was fixed!

Are we a better team with Martin or Mosley? Not sure, they are both great players.

Ehh, Martin or CJ Mosley? Hmmmm. I think we made out considering you build champions from the inside out.

The Cowboys made out big time!

I mentioned when it happened how big it was to get in front of the Ravens. They draft so well, particularly in the first round.

It worked out for both teams. You can make a solid case that they were the two best rookies in the league this year.

I'll take Martin only because he completed the OL for this year whereas Mosley wouldn't have the pieces around him to excel.

But there's really no wrong choice. Two studs.
