The Dallas Cowboys moved up in 2012 to take cornerback Morris Claiborne with the sixth overall pick in the Draft only to finish 19th overall in the league in passing defense and 22nd against the run. They also missed the playoffs with an 8-8 record for the second year in a row.

Claiborne recorded 55 total tackles, with one interception and one touchdown as a rookie. Hopefully for Jerry Jones' sake he was getting adjusted his first season as a Cowboys cornerback.
