[tps_title]10. Omar Stoutmire, S, 1997[/tps_title]
Stoutmire’s time in Dallas was short, just two seasons, but he immediately earned a backup role as a rookie and started two games when Darren Woodson was injured.
The following season Omar earned a starting role for the first 12 games of the season. He wasn’t great but at least filled a void and helped the Cowboys make the playoffs.
Dallas cut Stoutmire in 1999 while trying to upgrade the safety position but he went on to play another nine seasons in the NFL. Most notably, as pictured above, he was a full-time starter for the Giants from 2002-2003.
Just making the 53-man roster as a rookie was an accomplishment for Omar as a 7th-round pick. Earning a starting role in 1998 was another.
But what was especially impressive was Omar Stoutmire’s longevity in the NFL after leaving the Cowboys. Clearly, Dallas was right when they pro saw potential in him, and he had a good career for where he was drafted.
Guess I’m not as familiar with Leon Lett’s time cause I wouldn’t have assumed He’d be above Ratliff.
He wasn’t. Lett was 5th, Ratliff was 3rd.
I like Aaron Parker from Rhode Island for round 7. He would give better rotational depth at WR. If I’m Dallas I would honestly get him and get his teammate WR in the 5th also. Dallas would get 2 WR’S in this draft I think both of them would be steals.
Get Isaiah Culter and Aaron Parker as a WR from Rhode Island. I think they would be awesome in Dallas and be steals in the mid-later rounds.
The name alone, Bullet Bob, says it all. Hayes changed the game and was a true home run hitter every time he touched the ball. He is the best seventh rounder! And as the article mentioned, he was a great returner. He brought an excitement to the game that very few others could match. He was one of the players that kept the Cowboys a very popular team, with a rich, great history.
Cowboys are America’s Team! And hopefully with the FAs and the right draft picks, they can compete for another Championship. Dak better take his big head out of his a$$, and get on board. If not, hopefully the front office has a plan B.
“Mike Hegman was a backup linebacker and special teams player for his first four seasons. He helped the Cowboys win Super Bowl XIII in a big way, returning a Terry Bradshaw fumble for a touchdown.”
The Cowboys didn’t win Super Bowl XIII. The Steelers did.
