Cowboys eye massive draft swap to leap ahead in 2026
The Dallas Cowboys are at the center of late-2026 NFL Draft chatter, with ESPN’s Peter Schrager saying they could move up—potentially to No. 3 or No. 9—to target players such as LSU cornerback Mansoor Delane, in a blockbuster hypothetical trade that would send No. 12 and No. 20 to Kansas City for Nos. 9 and 29. The move would build on Dallas’s history of leveraging draft capital after trades involving Micah Parsons and Quinnen Williams, as the draft approaches and teams jockey for position.
