For now, the Cowboys are on course to have an extra Day 1 selection this year and next. Of course, that could change if the team used some of that capital for immediate help (particularly on the defensive side of the ball). Jones acknowledged on Friday an in-season deal is something Dallas is open to.

“Absolutely, I’m open for business period relative now that we have those extra picks,” said Jones (via The Athletic’s Jon Machota). “We should be.”

After just two weeks, it’s hard to say where Dallas needs the most help. Their defense allowed the third-most passing yards in the NFL through two weeks, but they seem to like their secondary talent and believe the unit will improve this year. As such, a cornerback addition feels unlikely. A more useful coverage upgrade might be at off-ball linebacker or safety; Cowboys at those positions have graded poorly to start the year, per Pro Football Focus (subscription required).

The Cowboys offense doesn’t seem to need any help. It’s a top-5 unit after two games, including a surprisingly-effective running game, and the amount of money Jones is already spending on that side of the ball may dissuade him from any other moves.
