Cowboys Not Expected To Take Cesar Ruiz
5 years agoESPN Dallas' Todd Archer is positive that the Dallas Cowboys won't select Michigan center Cesar Ruiz either at pick No. 17 or in a trade back on Thursday night in Round 1. Ruiz to Dallas has been a popular mock selection in the weeks leading up to this year's draft, but the Cowboys believe in Joe Looney, Connor McGovern and Connor Williams as replacements for previous center Travis Frederick, who retired this offseason because of a non-football issue. If Ruiz were to drop into the second round, perhaps the Cowboys would be interested, but it's looking like they'll use their first-round pick to focus on the defense instead of the offensive line.
