The Dallas Cowboys haven’t spent valuable draft capital on a safety since they used the No. 37 overall pick in the 1992 draft on Darren Woodson. Woodson went on to play his full 13-year career with Dallas, helping them to win three Super Bowl championships. The cupboard isn’t bare, but it’s certainly not stacked as the Cowboys currently only have Donovan Wilson, Darian Thompson and possibly Reggie Robinson on the roster currently.
With a large need for new blood, it might be time for Dallas to again try to hit big on safety in the draft. The question for the Cowboys is which of the two would be a preferable target.
As part of a recurring series to debate which of two prospects are the best fit for the Cowboys, this edition will feature two TCU safeties, Trevon Moehrig and Ar’Darius Washington and will feature draft analyst and radio host Jeff Cavanaugh of 105.3 The Fan.
Moehrig stands 6-foot-1 and weighs 208 pounds. In the Horned Frogs shortened ten-game season he had 47 tackles including two for loss, with two interceptions, and nine pass deflections. Washington stands 5-foot-8 and weighs 179 pounds. In nine games he had 37 tackles, including one for loss and four passes deflections.
