Second-round success is among keys to Cowboys' draft

IRVING, Texas - There has been so much focus on the Dallas Cowboys' first-round pick, we haven’t paid much attention to just how bad they’ve been selecting players in the second round.

Can you say atrocious?

Since 2000, center Andre Gurode and linebacker Sean Lee are the only players to earn contract extensions.Whether you blame the scouting director for putting bad players high on the draft board, the coaching staff for failing to develop their draft picks, or owner Jerry Jones for ignoring the draft board, it’s a trend that must stop.
