"The Cowboys will officially have eight picks to work with when the NFL draft comes. It stands to reason that they will move around at some point, but they have also stood and picked with every pick in many drafts before. You may have noticed that there is an absence of a few picks. Keep in mind that Dallas has already dealt those away."
"The Cowboys have a handful of picks from other teams. Those are the result of a few trades that can be traced all the way back to early in the 2024 season. 1st (20th overall): This is pretty memorable as Green Bay sent it in the Micah Parsons trade. 7th (Overall TBD): The Cowboys got this as well from the Giants in a pick swap that accompanied the Jordan Phillips trade."
The Dallas Cowboys secured eight picks for the 2026 NFL Draft following the official award of two compensatory selections. Prior to this announcement, they held six picks. The Cowboys' draft capital reflects numerous trades executed throughout 2024 and into 2025. They traded away picks in rounds two, three, six, and seven to acquire players including Quinnen Williams, George Pickens, Jordan Phillips, and Logan Wilson. In return, Dallas received picks from Green Bay (first round, 20th overall via the Micah Parsons trade), the Giants (seventh round via a pick swap with the Jordan Phillips deal), and Kansas City (seventh round for tight end Peyton Hendershot). This active trading approach demonstrates Dallas's strategy of balancing immediate roster improvements with future draft flexibility.
