The Dallas Cowboys are actively preparing for the upcoming NFL draft, which takes place in just two days. With 10 selections across seven rounds, owner and GM Jerry Jones revealed their intention to explore significant trades, although specific details remain undisclosed. The Cowboys have previously made impactful trades, acquiring players like quarterback Trey Lance and cornerback Stephon Gilmore, but have not executed a major deal since Amari Cooper's mid-season arrival in 2018.

This offseason, notable trades have included linebacker Kenneth Murray Jr. and cornerback Kaiir Elam. Currently holding over $37 million in salary cap space, the Cowboys must consider draft picks, practice squad additions, and incentives in their budget. Historically, the franchise has been active on draft day, with Jones orchestrating 72 trades since taking the helm in 1989.

Recently, the team has focused on extending Micah Parsons' contract, aiming to secure him as potentially the highest-paid non-quarterback in the league. Jones and Parsons have reportedly agreed on the contract's duration and guaranteed money, but final negotiations are pending with Parsons' agent. Parsons has begun participating in offseason activities, and the Cowboys are optimistic about finalizing the deal soon.
