Just purchased a 2003 Dodge Ram, ran great and started great driving it home. Now it sat overnight and will not start. When I turn key on I can hear lift pump running, but when the engine is
cranking it acts like its not getting fuel and doesn't fire at all. According to previous owner, truck has sat for long periods this winter without being started. Also, no codes come up on the truck. Any ideas? I had to replace injectors on another 2003 truck, but that one would only have problems starting when the engine was warm.

Starting fluid, warmed up, who knows what he did before you got there. Was the engine warm when you went to look at it?
 
Does the lift pump keep running? It should stop when pressure is established. If it keeps running,
the low pressure side to the cp3 is not seeing enough, or any supply. Hence filters, leaks, and most probably a bad pump.
