Cowboys-Chiefs draft trade for $6M safety finally comes to light

 The Dallas Cowboys nearly completed a draft-day trade with the Kansas City Chiefs to move up for safety Caleb Downs, head coach Brian Schottenheimer revealed. The Chiefs instead traded to No. 6 for Mansoor Delane, forcing Dallas to adjust and trade from No. 12 to No. 11, where they still selected Downs. Schottenheimer said Downs topped the Cowboys’ draft board, while the rookie is already being tipped as a breakout player entering training camp. The Dallas Cowboys nearly completed a draft-day trade with the Kansas City Chiefs to move up for safety Caleb Downs, head coach Brian Schottenheimer revealed.
