Cowboys eye defensive gems as Texas Tech pro day shines

With 28 days until the 2026 NFL Draft, Dallas Cowboys scouts led by Brian Schottenheimer attended Texas Tech’s pro day to evaluate defensive prospects, highlighting a deep Red Raiders defense and players such as OLBs David Bailey, Jacob Rodriguez, Romello Height and DT Lee Hunter. Rodriguez said he dined with Dallas, while Bailey, Height and Hunter did limited testing and Rodriguez did not participate in drills. Other standouts—Bryce Ramriez, Cole Wisniewski and Brady Boyd— posted notable numbers, and Patrick Mahomes appeared. Dallas is weighing where these defenders could fit in the draft and plans to hold roughly 30 more visits ahead of the draft.

Cowboys pursue a natural, pure draft approach as Pro Day circuit rolls on

Dallas Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer says Dallas is set up to 'draft natural, draft pure' in the 2026 NFL Draft after a strong free-agency period, with two first-round picks. He’s increasing his role in the draft process, studying prospects across Pro Days (Miami, Texas) and aligning with new DC Christian Parker to target players who fit the scheme. The team plans to avoid reaching for needs, instead aiming to draft the best available talent while continuing to add depth at several positions, staying open for business as scouting continues.

Cowboys Made Three Offers for Maxx Crosby, Including Osa Odighizuwa in One Package

The Cowboys reportedly pursued Maxx Crosby by presenting three trades to the Raiders in 2026: a 20th overall pick plus defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa; a 12th overall pick plus a third-round pick (no Odighizuwa); and a 12th overall pick plus a second-round pick (no Odighizuwa). The Raiders allegedly sought two first-round picks and a player; a separate deal with the Ravens yielded two first-round selections but Crosby wasn’t moved. The reports show Dallas’s persistent interest in Crosby even though no deal was completed.

Five NFL Clubs Poised with Dual First-Rounders for 2026 Draft

Five teams—Dolphins, Jets, Cowboys, Browns and Chiefs—already own two first-round picks for the 2026 NFL draft: Miami (Nos. 11 and 30 via the Waddle trade), the Jets (Nos. 2 and 16 from the Sauce Gardner deal), Dallas (Nos. 12 and 20 from the Micah Parsons trade), Cleveland (Nos. 6 and 24 from the Jaguars swap), and Kansas City (Nos. 9 and 29 from the Trent McDuffie deal). A potential sixth dual-pick deal with the Raiders collapsed, and the Broncos, Falcons, Colts, Packers and Jaguars do not have two first-rounders.

Crosby Pursuit Winds Down as Bears Probe, Cowboys Leave Door Open

After a failed trade to the Ravens, Crosby’s market cooled as the Bears acknowledged exploratory talks and the Cowboys signaled they wouldn’t rule out revisiting the possibility; Chicago had recently signed Odeyingbo and Dallas added other pass-rush pieces, while Crosby’s knee status and the Raiders’ price tag post-trade chatter have kept the market uncertain heading into the draft.

Cowboys Reload Roster: Durant, Hennessy Boost Depth as Free Agency Rolls On

Dallas traded defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa to the 49ers for a third-round pick, saving $4.75 million against the cap but taking on a $16 million dead-cap charge.
