It’s that time of year in the NFL for teams to build those rosters. The place that starts is the Senior Bowl, which occurs this weekend.
Since the Dallas Cowboys spend little on free agency, it’s all about draft efficiency, so the Senior Bowl is an important process for the team.
The highest selection the Cowboys have used on a Senior Bowl player that resides on the roster is Zack Martin, back in 2014. Last year saw Sam Williams in the second round get chosen by Dallas after his Senior Bowl performance. But generally this team waits until the third round and beyond to draft players that feature in the Senior Bowl.
