Should the Cowboys draft a quarterback every year?

When it comes the Dallas Cowboys, there are many differing opinions about how America’s Team should approach the NFL Draft. That goes for every franchise in the league. But the fact that the quarterback position is the most vital in all of football is something most agree upon. So why do the Cowboys so rarely draft any?

In fact, the Cowboys haven’t drafted a quarterback since 2009. (Stephen McGee, Texas A&M, 4th round) And before that, it was Georgia’s Quincy Carter in the second round of the 2001 draft!

Actually, there have been a total of four quarterbacks drafted by Dallas since Troy Aikman was selected first overall in 1989.
