The Dallas Cowboys have made Adam Warren Jerseya habit of smart picks. Whether it was Ezekiel Elliott or Zack Martin in the first round, Jaylon Smith in the second or Dak Prescott later, the team's recent success can be attributed to its drafting. After obtaining Anthony Rizzo JerseyMichigan's Taco Charlton in the first round, the Cowboys doubled down on defensive backs. Chidobe Awuzie's combination of versatility, coverage skills and NFL-ready physicality land him on this list. "We've got to find Clayton Richard Jersey ways to put speed on the field," defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli said, per the Dallas Morning News' Kate Hairopoulous. "...[Awuzie is] going to be an asset. He can cover." There were Ernie Banks Jersey rumblings that Awuzie's would be selected in the first round. But he eventually went 60th. "He's got Fergie Jenkins Jersey all those factors that say, 'Hey, this guy could go do it [at safety],'" secondary coach Joe Baker said, per Pro Football Talk's Charean Williams. "Right now, we'd like to see what he can do at corner first." Dallas required Hector Rondon Jersey a major overhaul among its defensive backs with the losses of Barry Church, Brandon Carr, J.J. Wilcox and Morris Claiborne in free agency. Awuzie will be one of the defense's key components as the team revamps its secondary. |
