For our final undrafted wonder of the Beyond The Clock series, we pay tribute to one of the greatest players in NFL history to ever go undrafted. My personal favorite Dallas Cowboy, number 9, Tony Romo. Romo attended the 2003 NFL Combine and although he peaked some scout’s interests, he went undrafted. 13 quarterbacks were drafted in 2003. Four in the first round.

Twenty seven days ago, we embarked on a countdown towards the 2016 NFL draft here on Inside The Star. Cowboys on the Clock has taken a look at the most recent first round pick the team has made corresponding to the number of days remaining until the draft. While the number 4 certainly means a lot to Dallas in the upcoming draft, as they will be selecting with the fourth overall pick for just the second time, it did not carry all that much meaning back in 1964. Reason being, the player selected – Texas’ Scott Appleton – never saw a snap in the silver and blue. Scott Appleton Appleton’s rights were traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers following his selection by the Cowboys.

It was about a month ago when football fans everywhere were glued to the Twitter feed of Adam Schefter as domino after domino continued to fall in the Free Agency Frenzy of the NFL Offseason. While we thought that our stomachs were plenty full off of juicy moves and acquisitions by various teams, we were given one last and final eye-popping serving when Josh Norman signed with the Washington Redskins on Friday. The move makes the NFL’s most storied division and its 2016 storylines all the more interesting. In case you haven’t heard, Josh Norman and Odell Beckham Jr. have themselves quite the history.

This is the ninth of a ten part series looking at possible trade scenarios for the Cowboys. For each scenario, we will look at possible trades and then explore mock drafts that could occur from the results of the trade(s). For our ninth article let’s look at a scenario where the Cowboys eventually trade down to the latter half of the first round. Somewhere around 20. There really does not seem to be one team that has enough second and third round picks to make this a good trade, but the Cowboys could do this by trading back twice in the first round.

Can you feel the excitement in the air? The 2016 NFL draft is just FIVE days away! The buildup to this year’s draft has been especially exciting for Cowboys Nation because the team holds a top 5 pick for the first time since 2003. That year, they selected Kansas State’s Terence Newman, who is today’s Cowboys on the Clock profile player: Terence Newman Newman would play nine very solid seasons as a Cowboy from 2003-2011 following his selection with the fifth overall pick by the team in the 2003 draft.
