A 6-foot-3 boundary corner from Florida whose talent outpaced his injury-shortened college resume before Dallas took him in round four.
Devin Moore is a big, physical cornerback out of Naples, Florida, who battled a string of injuries through most of his Florida career before finally staying healthy as a senior in 2025. The Dallas Cowboys traded up with Philadelphia to select him in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, betting on his size and ceiling as a starting boundary corner.
Path to the league
A four-star recruit who originally committed to Notre Dame, Moore instead signed with Florida, where injuries limited him to just 19 games across his first three seasons. He stayed healthy for a full season as a senior in 2025 before the Cowboys selected him in the fourth round (114th overall) of the 2026 NFL Draft, acquiring the pick in a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Career highlights
At 6-foot-3, 198 pounds, Moore's size at cornerback stands out even among SEC defensive backs, and he ran a 4.50-second 40-yard dash at the pre-draft process. Injuries defined much of his Florida career, including a shoulder injury as a freshman and a back injury and concussion as a sophomore, but scouts continued to value his length and coverage upside.
2025 season recap
Moore had his healthiest and most productive college season in 2025, starting 11 games for Florida and recording 35 tackles, two interceptions and a sack. The clean bill of health helped restore his draft stock, and Dallas selected him in the fourth round believing they landed one of the more talented corners in the class.
