Byron Jones to Cowboys: Twitter Reacts as CB Is Selected in 2015 NFL Draft

With Morris Claiborne's future in doubt and the secondary a somewhat notable issue in 2014, the Dallas Cowboys opted for a cornerback in the first round of the 2015 NFL draft. They selected Connecticut Huskies corner Byron Jones with the 27th overall pick.

Both the Fort Worth Star-Telegram's Clarence Hill and ESPNDallas.com's Tim MacMahon feel Jones offers great security for the Cowboys defense:

Cowboys go with Byron Jones...Address huge question marks at CB..Gives them leverage for Carr and insurance for Scandrick
