George Pickens Dynasty Value

The Cowboys have placed the franchise tag on WR George Pickens. He and the Cowboys still have until July 15 to agree to a long-term deal. If they don't, Pickens would be set to make $27.3 million in 2026. Dallas hasn't seemed overly aggressive in locking up Pickens for the long haul -- and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said earlier this month that a tag-and-trade is a possibility. We'll continue to keep tabs on the situation. Our best guess is that Pickens plays out this season on the tag for the Cowboys.

The Cowboys are expected to place the franchise tag on WR George Pickens, ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirmed this week. Owner Jerry Jones said he'd like to keep Pickens in Dallas for "a long time." But Rapoport believes a tag-and-trade remains a possibility. "The Cowboys have shown a willingness to trade their star players for significant draft pick compensation," Rapoport notes, referring to Micah Parsons. Pickens and Parsons notably share the same agent.
