Central State in Wilberforce, Ohio, is not known for being a football factory, but they produced Erik Williams, who went there mainly because his grades were so weak, he could not get a Division I scholarship.  No matter, as the Offensive Lineman was still turning heads, and he was a third round pick by the Cowboys in 1991.

When you think of Marquette, you don’t come up with visions of football.  Perhaps that is because the program shut down in 1960, which was the year that George Andrie was a junior.  This meant that during his senior year, he wasn’t playing football, and as such, slipped under the radar of many teams, but the Dallas Cowboys were not one of them.  He was chosen by Dallas in the 6^th Round, and he was set to begin his pro career.

A superstar at Arizona State, the Dallas Cowboys, drafted Danny White in the third round of 1974.  With the knowledge that he was going to be used primarily as a Punter, White joined the Memphis Southmen of the upstart World Football League, where he could play Quarterback.  The league folded quickly, and he joined Dallas in 1976, as the Punter, but also as Roger Staubach’s backup.

The Dallas Cowboys have been known throughout their history as having outstanding Offensive Linemen, and John Niland was the first one they acquired with a first round pick (5^th Overall in 1966).
