2005 Dallas Cowboys draft class ranked among best in the NFL in 21st century

When it comes to figuring out who the greatest Dallas Cowboys draft class in team history is, there are a couple of serious contenders.

For a long time the answer was always the famed Dirty Dozen group that came out of 1975. Walking away with Randy White and Thomas “Hollywood” Henderson at the top makes it a strong choice. The group in large part helped Dallas reach three different Super Bowls in their first four seasons, not to mention taking home the world title in Super Bowl XII.

Some argue for 1964 as that produced three different Pro Football Hall of Fame members in Mel Renfro, Bob Hayes (aka Bullet Bob) and Roger Staubach, although the latter obviously did not join the team for a bit given his commitment to the United States Navy.
