COWBOY UP

"Cowboy Up" by Adam Schefter

"Dallas and head coach Bill Parcells are taking a different tact to this year's draft, one that could set a trend in future years.

The Cowboys have instructed their assistant coaches to focus on this season's upcoming opponents rather than the upcoming draft, meaning the assistant coaches have had as little input into this draft as any coaching staff in recent memory.

Parcells, the Cowboys front office and Dallas' scouts have handled all the draft preparations, gearing up for the big weekend. It could turn out to be a great move. The men who know college talent have focused in on it, and the assistant coaches have focused in on next season, allowing Dallas to get ahead."

Good Idea? Bad Idea?
