The Dallas Cowboys weren’t in need of much offensive help when they came to the podium in the seventh round of the 2017 NFL Draft. Especially at the wide receiver position. They signed Andy Jones to a futures contract, someone the team thought highly of in the previous preseason and acquired Ryan Switzer.
The Cowboys have been known to snag players in the later rounds who may be viewed as projects, such as Rico Gathers. Noah Brown was viewed has a raw talent. He only played significant time in 2016 as a member of the Ohio State Buckeyes.
