Udfa Tracker: Dallas Cowboys’ undrafted free agency class takes shape after NFL Draft

By Lauren Price Apr 26, 2026

The officially have a draft class, and now the work of filling in the margins begins. Their udfa tracker is following reported undrafted free agents who are set to sign with the team after the 2026 Draft.

Saturday’s last update came at 7:23 p.m. ET, with the Cowboys still using the hours after the draft to sort out who fits next. That matters because undrafted free agency is part of how the roster gets shaped once the picks are in and the decisions move from the board to the locker room.

The Cowboys have long treated this part of the process as more than a cleanup exercise. They have thrived in undrafted free agency and are comfortable out-bidding other teams for players they care about, which is why the tracker matters as much as the names already called in the draft.

The team’s draft-day movement adds another layer to that picture. The trade is now closed for Dallas, the Cowboys used their compensatory pick for losing via free agency, and the net results from the Cowboys and Eagles trade from the first round are now known. Dallas also used its pick from the compensatory pick, while the pick was unique for the Cowboys in one sense.

That leaves the post-draft window to do what it always does: reveal which players the Cowboys value enough to bring in quickly, and which positions they still want to press with depth. Reported undrafted free agents are not draft picks, but they are free to negotiate with teams, and the Cowboys have made a habit of treating that market as a place to find real competition.

The tracker will keep changing as reports come in, but the larger point is already set. Dallas has its draft class, its trade math is mostly settled, and the next layer of roster building is underway.
