George Pickens has been in NFL trade rumors ever since the Dallas Cowboys issued the non-exclusive franchise tag in March. The Cowboys want to keep Pickens to pair with CeeDee Lamb; however, the price tag will be massive for a player of his caliber. The 25-year-old wide receiver is a popular name in NFL trade rumors, and Dallas co-owner Stephen Jones has broken the silence.
The Cowboys have âhad no one call with interest in George Pickensâ regarding a potential trade, as said by Jones on 105.3 The FAN through ESPNâs Todd Archer. Jones joined 105.3 The FAN and also talked about Dallasâ process for the 2026 NFL Draft before pivoting to Pickensâ situation.
Despite the NFL trade rumors, the Cowboysâ wide receiver hasnât been a popular call around the league. Several NFL teams, such as the New England Patriots and Baltimore Ravens, need an elite wide receiver. It is fascinating to learn that no one has called on Pickens before the NFL Draft.
The Cowboys could get one to two first-round picks for Pickens, but the clear priority is finding the right number on a contract extension. It could be part of why Dallas hasnât received any calls on the 25-year-old star, too. Pickens is due for a massive contract that could near $35 to 40 million annually on a multi-year contract.
If an NFL team signed Pickens to an offer sheet, it must send two first-round draft picks to Dallas as compensation. Pickens would need to sign his $27.3 million non-exclusive franchise tag to change the potential package. However, the Cowboys still hold long-term plans for the wide receiver.
As of now, the Cowboys havenât received any calls on Pickens, but that could change this summer.
