"The NFL Network experts are giving DeMarco Murray credit for raising his stock at last year's Senior Bowl, and to the Cowboys for drafting him.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said it was Murray's strength inside the tackles that made a difference.

"We knew he could be physical. We did not know he could run between the tackles," Jones said in an interview with the NFL Network this week. "We didn't see that a lot. But we knew he had the speed, could block, protect, and knew that he could really catch the ball.""
