Cowboys Eye Defensive Picks With Extra First‑Round Spot

Published April 8, 2026 · Updated April 8, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

The Dallas Cowboys now have two first‑round picks in the 2026 draft, thanks to the Micah Parsons trade, and are targeting defensive players to improve a last‑season point‑allowed record.

The Cowboys will draft at 12th and 20th overall, both likely defensive prospects, as part of a strategy to fix the unit that surrendered the most points last season. With the extra pick, Dallas can trade up or down to secure impact talent, aiming to reach the playoffs this year.
