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.

RoundExplanation
1The Cowboys will owe the better of their two first-round picks to the New York Jets as a result of the Quinnen Williams trade
1They have their own, but the other one is from the Green Bay Packers by way of the Micah Parsons trade, for clarity
2The Cowboys currently own their own second-round pick
3This was dealt to the Steelers in the Broderick Jones trade
4The Cowboys dealt their original fourth to the Packers this offseason in the Rashan Gary trade
4Dallas received Pittsburgh’s fourth in the Broderick Jones trade
5The Cowboys dealt this pick to the Pittsburgh Steelers last offseason in the George Pickens trade
6Dallas held Pittsburgh’s sixth from the George Pickens trade, but they sent it back in the Broderick Jones deal
6The Cowboys still own their own sixth-round pick
7The 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.
