Well, you may not have agreed with every draft pick the Cowboys made, but it’s hard to argue with the organization’s decision to assign certain numbers to these rookies.
I for one try really hard not to correlate these numbers with past players. I want these new rookies to come into the league and make their own individual impact with the Cowboys and hopefully a few of these jersey numbers will become part of the history of the organization.
*Update…
Dak Prescott has decided to switch from wearing the number 10 jersey and will now be wearing number 4 with the Cowboys.
Still excited for our #NFLDraft picks? Us too!

So, which rookie’s jersey will you be sporting in 2016?
I love this kind of stuff. Can't wait to go update my Madden team!

It'll be interesting to see Gathers in #80 because he's going to remind you a lot of Martellus Bennett physically. I also like #4 for Prescott, because if he's half as good as Aikman then I'll be happy, 😉
