I refused to take anyone from Dallas because of the inherent moral conflict. Fantasy football's original sin is that you end up rooting against your own team because one of your FF players is on the other team. I'm not ever rooting for Dallas.
One FF player -- I believe one of my brothers -- just sat on the sidelines for most of the draft, probably had a drink or two, let the clock run out, and took "the highest rated player," or whomever was the automatic pick.
