FRISCO, Texas (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys have selected Alabama offensive lineman Tyler Booker with the 12th overall pick in the NFL draft. It was a somewhat surprising choice for a club without an overwhelming need, but with priorities seemingly higher than another blocker, despite the retirement of six-time All-Pro right guard Zack Martin. The Cowboys got Martin with the 16th overall pick 11 years ago. There was a sense that Dallas might trade down because of the draft’s depth at other positions of need. Dallas stayed put, and took an offensive lineman in the first round for the third time in the past four drafts.
