Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones said the Cowboys have “had no one call with interest in George Pickens” regarding a potential trade.

Weird to publicly kill your leverage like that, but alright. It’s not exactly surprising that Pickens — a player who has a noted tendency to be late to meetings and has had documented clashes with coaches — hasn’t drawn much trade interest given the ballpark the Cowboys would likely be asking for in compensation. Dallas would probably have to recoup at least a second-round pick to move the talented wideout. We’re resigned to several blurbs about Pickens not showing up to various offseason activities and being a camp hold-in at this point. The resolution likely won’t happen until near the start of the season.
