How 'Dallas Day' gives Cowboys an advantage in their prep for NFL draft
With many draft prospects from the Dallas area -- such as RB Ashton Jeanty and QB Quinn Ewers -- the Cowboys have a leg up on other NFL teams.
The Cowboys will hold their invite-only "Dallas Day" on Friday. Most of the players will be timed and tested, like it's another type of combine or pro day.
However, Jeanty and other high prospects -- such as Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers, Texas A&M defensive lineman Shemar Turner, Oklahoma State running back Ollie Gordon II, TCU receivers Savion Williams and Jack Bech, Texas offensive lineman Cameron Williams, Miami tight end Elijah Arroyo and running back Damien Martinez -- will count as "Dallas Day" invites but will not work out.
Normally, the Cowboys have anywhere from 40 to 50 "Dallas Day" visitors. This year, the number is pushing 60. In addition to players with high school ties to the area, the Cowboys can invite every draft-eligible player from SMU, TCU and North Texas.
