IRVING, Texas – There might have been several veteran players pleased with the Cowboys’ recent draft, especially the first two picks. But none of them could possibly be more ecstatic than Rod Smith, who has now transitioned from running back to fullback.
In fact, there’s probably not another NFL player who has better ties to the first two picks of a draft than Smith, who not only is biological brother to second-round pick Jaylon Smith, but was roommates with Ezekiel Elliott during the 2013 season at Ohio State.
