Most of the time, sixth round draft picks don’t get much of a reaction in a team’s draft room.

On Saturday, the sixth-round pick of the Dallas Cowboys created a special moment for a member of the team’s personnel department.

Dallas used the No. 212 overall pick on Kansas State running back Deuce Vaughn, the son of Cowboys assistant director of college scouting Chris Vaughn.

At one point, Chris even got a chance to speak to Deuce on the phone, presumably to break the news that he would be the newest member of the franchise.

Despite being listed at 5-foot-6, Vaughn had a productive college career.

Vaughn was a versatile player at Kanasas State and didn’t hesitate if the coaches called him up to run between tackles.

«I always knew I wasn’t scared and I wasn’t afraid to run inside,» Kansas State head coach Chris Klieman told CBS Sports.

The Cowboys shared a throwback photo of the father and son, showing a young Deuce wearing a Cowboys jersey.

Klieman also praised Vaughn for his ability to stay on his feet and gain additional yardage.

«We started using it as a pure runner like the [first] the season continued. I’ve been saying it since he got here: He’s a very underrated running back among tackles. Some of his best plays have 3-4 yard gains that could have been 5-6 yard losses. You can’t give him clean shots.»
