6. (178) Nick Folk, K/P

Wednesday, June 13th, 2007

This was an interesting pick by the Dallas Cowboys.  The Cowboys will let Folk take on Martin Gramatica in an open competition for the placekicking job.  In 44 games at Arizona, Folk was 30 for 47 (63.8%) on field goals with a long kick of 53 yards.  He also made 86 of 89 extra points.  It’s also possible that the Cowboys might want Gramatica to focus on field goals and let Folk be the kickoff man for a season.  Folk also can punt the ball as he averaged 44.0 yards per punt as a senior for Arizona.  This seems like an odd pick for the Cowboys.
