I think you guys are in good hands.
Boise State had 3 players drafted this year and 3 more went UDFA. One of the UDFA's was a walk on that played 8 man HS football in Idaho!
Here's what the Dallas Cowboys coach said about players from Boise State (they now have 2 Boise State players drafted by Dallas -- Tyrone Crawford and Demarcus Lawrence -- and a third, Orlando Scandrick from another NFL team):
“We like Boise guys,” coach Jason Garrett said. “We always take a hard look at where the player has played, what kind of program (it is) and what that program is all about. They do a great job up there. It's a very competitive program. The players that come out of there compete; they play hard. We've got two of them, so we feel really good about how this guy has learned to play football and the environment he's been in.”
“They play with a hot motor,” Jones said. “Their motor runs high and I think that attracts people in the NFL. To play in our game, to play in the NFL you've got to have a passion for it and you've got to play every play and I think they get coached that way out there from the start out in Boise. So you see a lot of that in them and it's easy to start to like a guy. Obviously when you see some players and maybe they're not as coached up then you start to see a lot of plays off and this and that, then you start to downgrade a player. You've got to give it to them. We've looked at a lot of their guys the last 3-4 years and turn on tape and they're rolling"
