Jerry Jones: Cowboys working on '2 pretty substantive trades'
Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones teased that Dallas is working on multiple moves surrounding this week's NFL draft.
"We're looking at two things that could happen before or after the draft. Two pretty substantive trades, been working on today," Jones told reporters Tuesday, according to Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
The Cowboys hold 10 picks in the 2025 draft, including the 12th overall selection.
Dallas has been active this offseason despite not making a huge splash. The team added several veterans through trades and free agency on short-term deals, including pass-rusher Dante Fowler Jr., linebacker Kenneth Murray, and running backs Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders.
The Cowboys also traded for cornerback Kaiir Elam and quarterback Joe Milton.
The franchise is negotiating a long-term deal with star Micah Parsons, who's entering the final year of his rookie contract. Parsons was in attendance for the start of the voluntary portion of Dallas' offseason program, but the two sides remain apart in negotiations.
"Believe me, if we could sign Micah to a number we wanted to sign him to, we'd do it right now," executive vice president Stephen Jones said, according to ESPN's Todd Archer. "But right now, there's a difference in what we feel like is the right number and what he feels like is the right number."
