Last week, a classic offseason rumor floated in, as if in a soap-bubble, that Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones wanted to make a big splash in this year’s draft. Seems like I heard something like that last year. And maybe the year before, and yes, the year before that. It happens just about every year.
Jerry likes to yank the chain. Not a surprise. But the pundits immediately sprang into action, theorizing this meant the Cowboys might trade up this year, to grab one of the top players. I have to admit, that could happen.
