2026 NFL draft order entering Cowboys' Week 7 clash with Commanders

In this story:
The Dallas Cowboys are gearing up for a crucial Week 7 showdown with the division rival Washington Commanders on Sunday afternoon that could make or break the team's 2025-26 NFL campaign.
Entering the weekend, the Cowboys sit at 2-3-1, while the Commanders are at .500, with a 3-3 record. That means second place in the NFC East is up for grabs.
While Dallas is still in the mix in the wide-open divisional race, there are a lot of holes on the roster that will need to be addressed either before the trade deadline or during the offseason through free agency and the NFL Draft.

Luckily for Dallas, the team currently has two first-round picks. While there is still a long season ahead, if the draft were to be held today, the Cowboys would hold a pick just outside of the top 10, and another at the end of Round 1.

Ahead of Sunday afternoon, the Cowboys are currently slated at No. 11 and No. 30 overall. The late first-round pick was acquired from the Green Bay Packers as part of the Micah Parsons trade. With a loss to Washington, the Cowboys could slide into a top-10 position.
The No. 1 overall pick would belong to the winless New York Jets.
The 2026 NFL Draft will be held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, from Thursday, April 23, through Saturday, April 25.
