Surprise detail emerges from Steelers-Cowboys Broderick Jones trade
A new detail has emerged from the Pittsburgh Steelers' Broderick Jones trade with the Dallas Cowboys.
The Pittsburgh Steelers made a surprising trade, sending offensive tackle Broderick Jones and a fourth-round draft pick to the Dallas Cowboys for a third- and sixth-round pick. However, a new report has revealed an interesting twist to the trade. The sixth-round pick that Dallas is sending to Pittsburgh was actually the original pick that the Steelers sent to Dallas in the George Pickens trade from the previous year.
According to Cowboys beat writer Joseph Hoyt, the 2027 6th round pick being sent back to Pittsburgh is the same pick the Cowboys acquired in that trade.
Interestingly, this compensation links the Pickens trade to the Jones deal, and reunites the two former Steelers in Dallas. Additionally, this could work in the Steelers' favor if the Cowboys finish the 2026 season with a better record than Pittsburgh. The Steelers are getting their own sixth-round pick back, rather than Dallas' potentially later selection.
