The Dallas Cowboys didn’t use the 2019 NFL Draft to select any players from Boise State University. It’s only disappointing after I boldly predicted that the Cowboys would select their record setting quarterback Mark Rypien. Rypien went undrafted, but will be reportedly signed by the Denver Broncos. After my prediction, it’s safe to say that I’ll occasionally glance at Rypien’s during his NFL career.
If I had conducted a little more research, I might have realized that 2019 wasn’t the right year for the Cowboys to add players from Boise State. The Cowboys drafted Boise State players in the following years: 2008: Orlando Scandrick, DB; 2012: Tyrone Crawford, DE; 2014: DeMarcus Lawrence, DE; 2018: Leighton Vander Esch, LB and Cedrick Wilson, WR.
