'The adrenaline was flowing': How Drew Pearson stole show at NFL draft

FRISCO -- Drew Pearson is now my favorite Cowboy of all-time.

And I'm sure I'm not alone.

Not after Friday night. Not after Pearson stared down and then taunted the 100,000 Philadelphia fanatics attending the second night of the NFL draft. Pearson showed the swagger on the stage that he displayed in the 1970s as one of the greatest receivers in franchise history and greatest clutch performers in NFL history.

The NFL invited each franchise to send a legendary player to announce his team's selection in the second round. The Packers sent Hall of Famer Jim Taylor.
