IRVING – With the Cowboys selecting defensive end Demarcus Lawrence in the second round Friday night, they now have three players from Boise State on the roster.
Lawence joins defensive end Tyrone Crawford, a third-round pick in 2012 who missed last season with a torn Achilles, and cornerback Orlando Scandrick, a fifth-round pick in 2008.
“We like Boise State guys,” Dallas coach Jason Garrett said. “We always take a hard look at where the player has played, what kind of program (it is) and what the program is all about. They do a great job up there. It’s a very competitive program. The players that come out of there compete, play hard. We’ve got two of them (Crawford and Scandrick), so we feel really good about how this guy has learned to play football and the environment he’s been in.”
Lawrence said he’s looking forward to playing with Crawford.
“Oh, yeah, he’s kind of like a big brother to me,” Lawrence said. “I came in on my visit (to the Cowboys) and he showed me a lot of love.”
