Story summary
  • The Dallas Cowboys traded down from No. 20 in the 2026 NFL Draft, letting the Eagles select Makai Lemon, and traded up one spot with Miami Dolphins for Caleb Downs.
  • Steelers officials reportedly expressed displeasure, but Stephen Jones said the complaint was “not right.”
  • Owner Jerry Jones said the Steelers were upset and noted the draft is a free-for-all, so they would have needed to trade up to No. 19 for Lemon.
