- The Cowboys sent a 2026 third-round and 2027 fifth-round pick to Pittsburgh and received Pickens plus a 2027 sixth-round pick, earning them an A grade for addressing a key wide receiver need.
- Pickens joins a Dallas receiver group including CeeDee Lamb, potentially boosting quarterback Dak Prescott’s offense with a youthful, speedy deep threat.
