Cowboys First Look: Caleb Downs Hits Practice Field at The Star The Cowboys' coveted first-round pick has officially put on NFL threads ... though we think a number change could be on the upcoming agenda.

And now comes another change of sorts, as the Cowboys, who sometimes drag their feet on signing their draft picks, are busy putting pen to paper with all of them.

On Friday, the Cowboys agreed to terms with six of their seven picks from the 2026 NFL Draft.

Signed up with standard four-year deals are are ...

Safety Caleb Downs, Round 1: $28.95 million deal

Jaishawn Barham, Round 3: $6.815 million

Drew Shelton, Round 4: $5.575 million

Devin Moore, Round 4: $5.569 million

LT Overton, Round 4: $5.169 million

Anthony Smith, Round 7: $4.56 million

That leaves only the other first-round pick Malachi Lawrence needing to be done. And because all of this contracts are slotted, his contract will soon come in at about $20.5 million.

Is Cowboys' George Pickens Franchise Tag Saga 'Too Clean?' There has been no big public blowup or back-and-forth between the Cowboys and Pickens over the franchise tag, so is there reason to worry?

The Cowboys also finished deals with a group of UDFA prospects. That list:

WR Camden Brown

DT Tommy Dunn

T Sidney Fugar

DT Kelvin Gilliam

WR Jordan Hudson

LB Langston Patterson

T Shiyazh Pete

RB Dominic Richardson

TE D.J. Rogers

TE Michael Trigg

DT D.J. Withers

Dallas will finish up this two-day rookie minicamp on Saturday before a brief break and then more workouts that will eventually include the veterans. … all under the watchful eye of a maybe-changing Jerry Jones.
