IRVING, Texas -- Throughout their history the Dallas Cowboys have had success in finding players from small schools.
Tom Landry, Tex Schramm and Gil Brandt were legendary at it. Rayfield Wright was a basketball player at Fort Valley State and developed into a Hall of Fame offensive tackle. Ed "Too Tall" Jones was the No. 1 overall pick in 1974 out of Tennessee State. Cliff Harris came from Ouachita Baptist and turned into a Ring of Honor safety. Thomas Henderson was a first-round pick from Langston. Bob Hayes came from Florida A&M.
The current iteration of the Cowboys has one of the best small-school finds in Tony Romo.
