With all of the coverage the draft picks will take, it is always good to stop and look at the guys who weren’t drafted, but could play important roles on the Dallas Cowboys.

Some of them will make the team, some won’t, and some could be stars one day. The Cowboys did a good job addressing most of their needs this year, and the undrafted free agents round out a good looking class.

While no one knows what these players will be, one thing is certain, every team needs these depth players. Most of these players end up on special teams or the practice squad. Even if that is the height of these players careers, they are an important part of the team. Their ability to fill the depth chart and step up when needed can help a team win games.
