The Dallas Cowboys were sitting there with the third pick of the second round needing a defensive end with good value. Emmanuel Ogbah was just sitting there at the end of the first day of the NFL Draft wanting to go to a good team with a shot at winning.
It almost happened.
But then Cleveland, of all teams, stepped in and screwed it up. The Browns selected Ogbah with pick No. 32, two spots in front of Dallas selecting Notre Dame linebacker Jaylon Smith.
Jerry Jones’ son Stephen was asked if Dallas wanted to draft Ogbah instead.
