The rookie tackle out of Virginia Tech is beginning to make a strong case for a slot on the 53-man roster.
Several months back I had the opportunity to sit down with my SB Nation college Roy Hatfield of Gobbler Countyto discuss the impact of the Dallas Cowboys seventh-round investment in Virginia Tech's offensive tackle Laurence Gibson. At that time, Gibson was the second offensive lineman taken by the team and was looked at as something of a project for Frank Pollock and Marc Columbo to develop. When the Cowboys also secured the services of La'el Collins it looked even more certain that Gibson would be stashed away on the practice squad for the 2015 season.
