How many draft picks do the Dallas Cowboys have in 2027? Maybe you know that answer off the top of your head, but if you don’t then we are here to help you out.
On Saturday, the Cowboys made a deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and their draft capital for next year was impacted as a result. To acquire Broderick Jones, the Cowboys sent two draft picks and received another. While the volume of picks changed, so too did the slotting of them, and as a result the team now has a total of four selections.
Here are the details of relevant picks tied to them, even if they are now gone.
Round
Explanation
1
The Cowboys will owe the better of their two first-round picks to the New York Jets as a result of the Quinnen Williams trade
1
They have their own, but the other one is from the Green Bay Packers by way of the Micah Parsons trade, for clarity
2
The Cowboys currently own their own second-round pick
3
This was dealt to the Steelers in the Broderick Jones trade
4
The Cowboys dealt their original fourth to the Packers this offseason in the Rashan Gary trade
4
Dallas received Pittsburgh’s fourth in the Broderick Jones trade
5
The Cowboys dealt this pick to the Pittsburgh Steelers last offseason in the George Pickens trade
6
Dallas held Pittsburgh’s sixth from the George Pickens trade, but they sent it back in the Broderick Jones deal
6
The Cowboys still own their own sixth-round pick
7
The Cowboys dealt this pick to the Philadelphia Eagles in the first round this year in trading back in the first round before picking Malachi Lawrence, Dallas also picked up two fourth-rounders this year that became Devin Moore and LT Overton
The Cowboys will own a first-round pick, still have their second-rounder, now own Pittsburgh’s fourth-round pick, and they still hold their own sixth-round selection.
None of this is meant to sound alarming. If you hit on four picks then no one will care.
But obviously the Cowboys are now putting themselves in a situation where they are going to have to thread a particular needle regarding the draft. Perhaps they plan on and anticipate being more active in free agency to compensate for that, but for as different as this past offseason felt that still sounds a bit like a stretch.
Time will tell. For now, we know this is what the Cowboys have to work with in terms of capital.
