After making a trade to secure one of the top defensive prospects in the draft, Caleb Downs, the Dallas Cowboys have made another move on the first day of the draft. The Cowboys sacrificed some draft capital to move up one pick to get Downs, making a trade down at 20 much more likely. Ultimately, Dallas made the decision to move back from their second first-round pick to acquire some additional draft capital.
Dallas agreed to send pick 20 and 218 (7th) to the Philadelphia Eagles in return for pick 23, 114 (4th), 137 (4th).
