However, due to off-field issues, the 6-foot-6, 240-pound pass-rusher had a longer-than-expected wait to hear his name called.

Thursday's first round came and went without Gregory making the walk across the stage. On Friday, with the second round winding down, the Dallas Cowboys ended Gregory's wait, taking the ex-Nebraska star with the 60th pick.

Gregory, as one would expect, is using the drop in the draft as motivation.

Check out the tweet above that he sent out early Friday morning, after not being selected in the first round.
