You love to hate them but the DallasCowboys have been a model NFL franchise in this way:
And yet, it works. Dallas is on the verge of their second straight playoff appearance in three seasons under McCarthy . They currently hold the fourth-best odds to win the Super Bowl and the second-best odds to win the NFC, behind the division-leading Philadelphia Eagles.
This season on offense, the Cowboys have only had one player not drafted or signed by the team as an undrafted free agent play more than 5% of the team’s offensive snaps: Jason Peters. Peters, 40, has played 12.6% of the team’s offensive snaps filling in for injured left tackle Tyron Smith. In an era of constant roster churn, this is almost unprecedented.
Tony Pollard, a fourth-round pick in 2019, has truly broken out this season, leading the team in rushing and yards from scrimmage. Michael Gallup, the team’s No. 2 receiver, and Dalton Schultz, the team’s top tight end, were Dallas’ third- and fourth-round picks in 2018. They parlayed their substantial production last season into a large second contract and a franchise tag, respectively.
In the secondary, 2020 second-round pick Trevon Diggs has become one of the league’s best corners. While at times inconsistent, Diggs is perhaps Dallas’ greatest draft find outside of the first round since they selected Prescott in 2016, but again, their hits in the middle and late rounds are what have truly made them a player development machine.
