Cowboys' Draft Drama: Trade or Stay?

0:00On April 16, Dallas Cowboys are gearing up for a bold play in the 2026 NFL draft. They're expected to trade up from their 12th overall spot, handing over both first round picks at 12 and 20 to snag the top defensive. Talent on the board. Most draft insiders see this as the move Jerry Jones will make. But Charles Robinson from Yahoo Sports is the lone voice saying, nah, they're staying put with those picks. Why pass on the deal? It hands Dallas a solid edge on the trade value chart, leaving teams like the Browns scratching their heads on why they downgrade. Cowboys also crave two first rounders for those 5th year options, dodging their usual contract drama with young stars. This draft season's rumor mill has been straight chaos for Big D fans, way more hyped than lately. Analysts mostly align on the trade up talk, but that outlier view adds real spice. One week out, the suspense builds just how Jones likes it, with Cowboys nation locked in for whatever drops next.
