IRVING (105.3 THE FAN) — The Dallas Cowboys started with offense by drafting OL Zack Martin in the first round, but drafted seven defensive players in the last six rounds of the draft.
Meet the newest Cowboys, and hear the secret audio between the players and team officials as heard on 105.3 The Fan.
Martin was a tackle with the Fighting Irish, but will likely start his career in Dallas at guard. A two-time captain at Notre Dame, Martin started 52 career games — the most in school history.
Dallas surrendered their 3rd round pick to move up and select Lawrence, a 6-3, 251-pounder who recorded 20 sacks and 34 tackles for losses in his college career.
The 6-4, 262 pounder was a team captain at Standford. Selected as an All-Pac 12 first team member in 2013, after finishing with 7.5 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks.
