Overall Assessment
PRE-DRAFT: Not scouted prior to NFL Draft.
POST-DRAFT: DiNucci is a developmental quarterback that could battle for backup duties with the Cowboys, but it is more likely that he ends up on their practice squad for 2020. With that being the case, he isn’t fantasy relevant for the time being, so save a roster spot and look for someone else.
