Drafted by Cowboys Cowboys Select S Xavier Woods -- 6th Round (191st overall)

[LocimusPrime]

Tbh I didn't know who he was, but I googled him and feel comfortable with this pick in the 6th rd. My next goal to watch some of his highlights so I speak intelligently about him.

Future is bright.

I just love that we aren't taking those obvious nonames anymore. Fan's may not know everything about the draft, but I swear, there were some real head scratchers in those days.

Can't wait to see this D.

Awesome draft class.

What was the trade?

Did they trade next year's 5th to move up in the 6th or move into the 5th? How many spots did we move up?

Thanks!!!

They traded a 5th rounder next year to move into the 6th 191 overall from the Jets.

Any idea why he dropped?

Deep draft for DBs and eye of the beholder. Anthony Brown fell to the 6th last year.

Woooooooo what a draft

 

[StarBoyz83]

This...and didn't have to spend $200+Million to do it lie the Giants!!

Can't wait to see Jaylon on the field!

The giants are in win now mode with Eli that's why they did it the expensive and fast way.

But this defense can be really good in a year or 2.

Since they were on commercial break during out pick (of course they were).

That's what I picture risen to look like

They traded a 5th rounder next year to move into the 6th 191 overall from the Jets.

We still have our previous 6th round pick too?

Boom. Jerry and co pull the trigger and trade up to get our newest Safety. We traded next year's 5th rounder to the Jets to move up.

Completely revamping our Secondary in one draft. Wild. Great move though. Cowboys are killing it this draft imo.

Height: 5'11

Weight: 200 lbs.

I borderline am more excited about this year than last years draft!

Holly hell!

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

I'm very pleased at this point. Something to be said for standing pat in a deep draft, trusting your board and letting the picks define themselves. "Character chance" but in the 3rd and with tremendous value. I don't think many would have blinked if Lewis and Awuzie were drafted is opposite flip flopped spots based on talent? I'm pleased.

Future is bright.

That list. My god man.

 

[DFWJC]

So glad they waited.
We had some of our Cowboy fans bros calling for him as early as the 3rd, and certainly the 4th.
Definitely thought he could be had later, and he was!

Well played Dallas

We still have our previous 6th round pick too?

yes

All these DB's have a nasty swag about them...

No more small school underwear olympics champ projects. We are now getting football players who can actually play football from day one.

Do you guys think he has the size/frame to play strong safety?

Broaddus/Brugler do.
