He takes the set that he wants to take every single play. He reacts appropriately. He doesn\u2019t overreact. As a football nerd, awesome to watch.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones said they will franchise tag WR <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/P\/PickGe00.htm?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=nfltraderumors.co&amp;utm_campaign=2026-02-23_pfr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">George Pickens<\/a> in the next week: \u201cWe think the world of him.

Always open-minded to trading. If the right guy is the perfect fit, then we would certainly look at it.\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/jonmachota\/status\/2025990819405009156?s=20\" rel=\"nofollow\">Jon Machota<\/a>)<br \/>\nRegarding owner Jerry Jones saying they could bust the budget to get things done, Stephen Jones instantly pointed to the defensive side of the ball: \u201cWe want to fix this defense. We feel really good about the offensive side of the ball now that we got Javonte [Williams] done, and we know we\u2019ll have George [Pickens] back\u2026 Obviously, we\u2019ve spent a lot of time on it already, in the offseason, revamping the defensive coaching staff, and now we\u2019ll take the next steps, which are to improve the personnel on that side of the ball.\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/jonmachota\/status\/2025992792980246599?s=20\" rel=\"nofollow\">Machota<\/a>)<br \/>\nJones was asked about potentially re-signing DE <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/C\/ClowJa00.htm?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=nfltraderumors.co&amp;utm_campaign=2026-02-23_pfr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Jadeveon Clowney<\/a>, but <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/jonmachota\/status\/2025993504246149273?s=20\" rel=\"nofollow\">Machota<\/a> said it sounded like they are still evaluating his potential fit in new DC Christian Parker\u2019s defense.\u00a0<br \/>\nJones also commented on LB <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/O\/OverDe00.htm?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=nfltraderumors.co&amp;utm_campaign=2026-02-23_pfr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">DeMarvion Overshown<\/a>, with him entering the final year of his rookie deal: \u201cI think the biggest thing is that, availability. Certainly, no one wants to play the game more than him, I can assure you that.
