The Dallas Cowboys have selected Wide Receiver Simi Fehoko with a 5th-round pick, 179th overall, in the 2021 NFL Draft. Fehoko just finished his junior year at Stanford.

While listed at 6’4″ and over 220 lbs., Fehoko ran a 4.43 in the 40-yard dash. He makes an excellent developmental prospect at WR, something Dallas didn’t really have going into the weekend.

Here in fifth round, Cowboys are selecting former Stanford WR Simi Fehoko at No. 179 overall. Big receiver at 6-4 and 222 pounds. Initial impact should come on special teams.

The Cowboys have a solid five at WR currently with their big three of Amari Cooper, Michael Gallup, and CeeDee Lamb plus experienced backups in Cedrick Wilson and Noah Brown. Fehoko may be able to push Brown for that 5th spot, though, if he can contribute on special teams.

Dallas started the 2021 Draft with six defensive picks but have used their last two on offense; Fehoko and OT Josh Ball.

Welcome to the Cowboys, Simi Fehoko!
