As the draft winds down, the next stage of talent acquisition gets into high gear, as teams start to chase down the remaining players they had draftable grades on.
The Cowboys had nine undrafted free agents on their roster starting at least one game in 2015: Tony Romo, Barry Church, Ronald Leary, Tyler Clutts, Kellen Moore, Ayodeji Olatoye, Tyler Patmon, Jeff Heath, and Lucky Whitehead all went undrafted and took a sometimes circuitous route to the NFL. Add special teamers Dan Bailey and Chris Jones, as well as other contributors like David Irving and Lance Dunbar, and the Cowboys have been quite successful in bringing in undrafted free agents over the years.
