2020 NFL draft parties won't be the same as these Cowboys gatherings

i

If DeMarcus Ware closes his eyes, he still can feel the day he was selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the 2005 NFL draft.
"Dude, I can remember the mac 'n' cheese, brisket," he said. "We had a soul food dinner -- collard greens, corn bread, all the fixings. My mom, she didn't want to order a cake. She made the cakes. Red velvet and carrot. She was like, 'No, I want it to be original.' So, she made the cakes."

Cowboys Could Still Use Depth, Youth on D-Line​

Depth Check:
Normally, if a team signed a pair of veteran defensive tackles, including a six-time Pro Bowler, there wouldn't be a strong need to address the same position during the draft. But this might be an exception to the rule. Certainly, the additions of both Gerald McCoy and Dontari Poe – a couple of former first-round picks, will bolster the middle of the defensive line. And it seems as if the Cowboys are looking for a different type of tackle, especially with Poe's playing weight always around 350 pounds. But after those two, there are some question marks. Antwaun Woods has not been signed and Trysten Hill was a non-factor in his rookie season, despite being the team's top overall pick. The Cowboys could stand to gain some depth inside, especially since Poe and McCoy seems to be more of a short-term fix.

Prospect Preview:
One name that keeps getting linked to the Cowboys is South Carolina's Javon Kinlaw, a freakishly-gifted athlete who figures to be gone before the team picks at No. 17. But Kinlaw has rare size (6-5/315) to match his athleticism and could be a force in the middle of any team, regardless of scheme. The Cowboys had a virtual meeting with Auburn's Marlon Davidson, who has some position flex to play both end and tackle. Alabama's Raekwon Davis (6-7, 311) was also another player the Cowboys visited during this process and could provide some beef inside as well.

Memorable Pick:
How about the first one in team history? The Cowboys had the 13th overall pick in 1961, their first year to participate in the regular NFL Draft. And while he might have been a local player from TCU, Bob Lilly turned out to be an outstanding pick. Nicknamed "Mr. Cowboy," Lilly was an All-Decade player both in the 1960s and 70s and was the first Cowboys player inducted into their Ring of Honor. He still is tied for the team record with 11 Pro Bowl selections, along with Jason Witten.

Mike McCarthy would not say whether Dak Prescott was a participant in the first two days of the voluntary virtual offseason program that, but he said the quarterback has been sent an iPad and been in communication with the coaches. “We don't do a roll call publicly,” McCarthy said.

Jerry Jones seemed to downplay any interest the Cowboys would have in trading for a superstar player, like Jets safety Jamal Adams, calling such a move, “highly unlikely.” "At this time of the year, draft pick values are heightened because all the teams in the league want to use that pick on a player for now and the future that is salary-cap friendly,” Jones said. “So the idea of trading a very valuable No. 1 for an existing player that will more than likely cost you a lot more is unlikely.”
 
Updates: Cowboys Waive Kicker Vizcaino
The Cowboys are down to two kickers on their roster after waiving Tristan Vizcaino on Wednesday.
Vizcaino was signed to a futures deal in January after trying out for the kicker job late in the 2019 season. The Cowboys still have Greg Zuerlein, a veteran pickup in March, and Kai Forbath, who was re-signed after making all 10 of his field goal attempts in three games with Dallas last December.
