At workouts in February, Appalachian State's Dexter Coakley ran a breathtaking 4.47 in the 40 and displayed a 38-inch vertical jump. Though Coakley is just 5'9" and 215 pounds, his assets convinced the Cowboys to take him in the third round in April; they envision him taking over the weakside linebacker spot. "It's a finesse position," says defensive coordinator Dave Campo. "We're asking him to run and cover, not take on blockers. He's a sharp kid. There's no question we'll find a place for him somewhere."
