Cowboys Looking to Trade Up in the First Round of 2026 NFL Draft?
There is a belief among NFL teams at the top of the upcoming 2026 draft that the Dallas Cowboys, who have picks at No. 12 and No. 20, are a team to watch in trade-up scenarios, multiple league sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Several teams have said they think the Cowboys are targeting a player that the division-rival New York Giants also covet, and "getting ahead of them would be ideal if the price makes sense." Executive vice president Stephen Jones has said that the Cowboys might not have 22 players in this class graded out as first-round prospects, so it would make sense for them to trade up to secure a player that they really like while also blocking a division rival in the process. Dallas' offense could put up points with the best in the league last year, but their defense really struggled after they traded All-Pro pass-rusher Micah Parsons to the Packers before the start of the season. We'd expect them to target defense early in this year's draft, and they could use help at linebacker, edge rusher, and cornerback.
