Taking it back to another era, Aaron Kyle once roamed the field for the Cowboys in the 25. The Cowboys selected Kyle in the first round of the 1976 NFL Draft, and the former Wyoming star had to prove that he belonged in the NFL. It wasn't until his second year in the league that Kyle earned his first start with the team. Kyle's second season also proved to be a good one for the franchise, as the Cowboys took home the Super Bowl.
