With the eighth overall selection in the 1998 NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys had a chance to land a Hall of Fame wide receiver. Unfortunately, they allowed character concerns to influence their decision and scared themselves away from a player who could have revitalized their aging franchise.
That player was Randy Moss. And while the prospect they selected instead, North Carolina defensive end Greg Ellis, had a solid 12-year NFL career including a Pro Bowl nod in 2007, the regret of not drafting Moss resonates to this day.
