The Cowboys surfed a wave of good fortune to get Byron Jones in the draft's first round on Thursday. The further good news is that the run on positions in which they were less interested means that there are more good defensive players still on the board. And that means that more talent may well fall into our Beloved 'Boys' laps.
In our most recent pre-draft podcast, I shared that one of the potential problems I anticipated in this year's draft was that the Cowboys could well be "chasing" running backs and defensive ends all weekend.
