Dak Prescott's abilities on the football field have only skyrocketed since he was knocked down to the fourth round of the 2016 NFL Draft.

The Dallas Cowboys selected Prescott 135th overall in the draft and he earned a spot on the PFWA All-Rookie Team as well as the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year honor.

Since the start of his rookie season, Prescott became a three-time Pro Bowler, a second-team All-Pro member, and the 2022 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year.

Over the last eight seasons, Prescott has amassed 29,459 passing yards and 202 passing touchdowns. He has averaged a 99.0 passer rating with a 67 percent completion rate on his pass attempts.

The one thing bumping Prescott down this list is his 74 interceptions, an average of 9.25 per season.
