The opening day of the NFL draft saw the Cowboys working the phone lines as they traded both up and down with their first two selections. Friday was a waiting game, with the team having to watch almost 60 players come off the board before making their lone pick of Day Two.
Saturday’s slate of picks required the war room to be up and at ’em right out of the gates, with three turns in the fourth round and plenty of roster positions that most felt were still awfully thin as the day began.
One of those positions was addressed with the team’s second pick of the day. With Pick No. 114, the Cowboys selected Florida cornerback Devin Moore.
The 22 year-old fell just outside the top 15 at the position in most pre-draft rankings and did have some injury concerns over his time with the Gators. Most consider him to be a high-risk, high-reward prospect.
That will add more questions to the CB room that already has DaRon Bland and Shavon Revel, although Dallas also added Cobie Durant and Derion Kendrick during the offseason to help the platoon.
