“Prime Time” Deion Sanders had already proven himself as a superstar in Pro Football, as he was already a four-time Pro Bowl and three-time First Team All-Pro.  The year before he signed with Dallas, he was a San Francisco 49er for one year, and he helped them win the Super Bowl and won the Defensive Player of the Year.

Tyron Smith was considered to be one of the most coveted Offensive Lineman of the 2011 Draft, and it was the Dallas Cowboys who snagged the USC product ninth overall that year.

It was fitting that Harvey Martin played his entire pro career with the Dallas Cowboys.  Martin was born in Dallas, played at East Texas State, and was drafted in the 3^rd Round by the Cowboys in 1973 and joined and immediately contributed to what was already a dominating defensive unit. 

Cornell Green is another player on this list of all-time Dallas Cowboys who are played his entire pro career in the state of Texas.
