Cowboys Eye Extra First-Round Pick for Playoff Push

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

The Dallas Cowboys have an extra first‑round pick in 2026, the 20th overall, and plan to use both 12th and 20th to shore up a shaky defense and move closer to a playoff berth.

The Cowboys’ 12th‑overall pick and the 20th, acquired from the Packers after trading Micah Parsons, give Dallas two top‑tier options. With defense the biggest weakness last season, the team will likely target two defensive players in the first round, aiming for immediate impact to boost a playoff push.
