Prescott was an afterthought in the 2016 draft, selected in the fourth round after Jerry Jones unsuccessfully tried to trade up for Paxton Lynch and Connor Cook. Lucky for the Cowboys, Dak proved a revelation in his rookie year, stepping in for an injured Tony Romo to lead the team to a 13-3 record while accumulating the highest rookie QB passer rating in history. Prescott won the 2016 AP Offensive ROY award.
