Cowboys' Draft Strategy: Trade Up or Down?

0:00On April 8th, the Dallas Cowboys are gearing up for the NFL draft spotlight in just a couple weeks, sitting pretty with a 12th and 20th. Overall picks, they've got 8 selections total, giving them solid ammo to play the trade game, and snagged top talent from this deep class. Jerry Jones, the team owner, made it clear they're open to every move imaginable, from swapping picks on draft night to grabbing future assets all the way out to 2027. He stressed that having this much draft capital is the real edge, no matter how smart your scouting is. Jones pointed out it's one thing to plan now, but three hours into the draft, everything changes based on who's available. Fans are buzzing about how this flexibility could reshape the roster after last season's moves. They lack a second round pick, traded to the Jets for Quinn and Williams, so trading down from one of those first round spots might land them extra. Officials say all paths stay on the table as the board shakes out, as the board shakes out.

1:00With so many options in play, the Cowboys could turn these picks into a game changer, keeping Dallas dreaming big this off season. Football news, powered by AI, this is NFL News Today.
