Any chance the Cowboys will pick one on Day 3? \u2013 Steve Craig\/Newport, WA<\/p>\n<p>Mickey: I&#8217;m not quite sure about there being &#8220;a lot of good quarterbacks&#8221; in this year&#8217;s draft, and that might depend on what you are looking for at quarterback. A potential future starter or a potential future backup? Seems to be more potential future backups in this draft, but then the Cowboys already used a fifth rounder last year on Joe Milton as a developmental type QB. Don&#8217;t have a problem with like using a late Day 3 pick on a quarterback if just trying to interview a potential extra arm for training camp, but then probably can find that in an undrafted free agent if looking for a practice squad type. Taking a quarterback if still having a level of confidence in Milton&#8217;s development would be low on my priority list.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"(Editor&#8217;s Note: Time to check the mail!
