The Dallas Cowboys stayed patient with the 27th overall selection in the first round of the NFL Draft. And it appears to have paid off for Dallas as cornerback Byron Jones out of Connecticut fell into their laps. Jones now adds his talent and supreme athleticism to a struggling Cowboys defensive backfield.
As you’d expect, Cowboys players and fans took to social media to air their feelings about the pick. Below, you’ll find some of the best tweets of the night.
Great pick by @dallascowboys that makes me so excited for the season #CowboysNation — Alyssa Marie Banca u2693 (@AyyyBanks) May 1, 2015
