Dallas is 2-3 and Green Bay is 3-2 ahead of their Sunday Night Football showdown<\/a>. It’s hard to say who is more likely to finish the year with a better record. And even if it’s the Packers, the Cowboys may have a better shot at winning its division. That could affect the draft order beyond just overall records, and which pick ends up going to New York.<\/p>\n Some of those other factors will crystallize more as we get closer to the end of the season. For now, Dallas has a chance to put a dent in the Packers’ season while also helping save its own. And if it’s a loss that eventually helps keep Green Bay out of the playoffs, that could be the difference between a pick in the 15-18 range versus something toward the end of the round.<\/p>\n As things currently stand, it feels more likely that the Jets are getting the Cowboys’ original 2027 pick and we’ll be drafting someone with Green Bay’s pick. Naturally, then, we want that other pick to be as valuable as possible.<\/p>\n Cowboys fans now have to root for Bucs over Steelers<\/p>\n After what Tampa Bay did to Dallas last week<\/a>, rooting for them this Sunday may not be easy. But it is practical as they host the Steelers, who owe Dallas their 2027 fourth-round pick. <\/p>\n Even with their head-to-head tiebreaker over the Cowboys, the Bucs are still just 1-4 and don’t seem like a threat in the NFC. If Dallas can get itself together and into the wild card race, or especially if it wins the NFC East, we’re probably not worried about Tampa later this year.<\/p>\n
