The Cowboys have indeed come away from the draft with a quarterback, selecting Dak Prescott from Mississippi State with a late fourth-round pick.

Prescott has been linked to the Cowboys for a while now with several offseason workouts and meetings along with time spent together at the Senior Bowl. He will compete with veteran Kellen Moore for the backup spot.
Dallas admitted to trying to move up in the late first round to get Paxton Lynch and reportedly tried again today to acquire Connor Cook. Clearly, Dallas wanted to come away from this draft with a new face behind Tony Romo.
I am happy with Dak pick. A player I wanted to see them take.
