Felix Jones & Jerry Jones Visit Little Rock

Jerry Jones was honored as Easter Seal's Arkansan of the year Thursday night. Jerry brought along Felix Jones, Tony Romo, and Jason Witten to the ceremony.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones says drafting a wide receiver isn't a priority this year, even after the departure of Terrell Owens.

"One of the reasons that I made the decision on Terrell Owens was because I thought so much of our young receivers. Not only Roy Williams ... but our other young receivers -- Miles Austin, Sam Hurd, those are guys that will now have a chance," Jones said Thursday night. "It would really have to be a real opportunity for us to go there.

"The good news with our team right now is we can go about any direction we want to in the draft and pick the best player."

Owens was released last week and later signed with the Buffalo Bills.
