The Dallas Cowboys made the biggest trade of the offseason when they sent star pass rusher Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers, but it sounds like they’re not done yet. Thanks to the Parsons trade, Dallas has two additional first-round picks, and owner Jerry Jones says that he’s looking to make a move.
“Absolutely, I’m open for business period relative now that we have those extra picks,” Jones said.
Cowboys Jerry Jones: “I’m Open” To Another Trade
At this point, it’s safe to assume any trade will address the defensive side of the ball. While they could obviously use another pass rusher, it’s hard to envision the Cowboys giving up draft picks acquired in the Micah Parsons trade for a lesser option at a similar position. This team’s biggest issue is probably in the secondary, and while the eventual return of DaRon Bland will improve the unit, they could use another safety. San Francisco’s Ji’Ayir Brown is a natural fit, as the third-year safety is currently falling down the depth chart and playing a pseudo-linebacker role for Kyle Shanahan’s squad.
While the offense is not a worry for the Dallas Cowboys, they could use additional depth at running back. Javonte Williams has done a remarkable job through two games, but how long can this last? Even if Williams can maintain this pace for a full season, Miles Sanders looks like a shell of himself, and fifth-round pick Jaydon Blue can’t get onto the field. If the Cowboys want another running back, they could trade with the Saints for Alvin Kamara. Kamara isn’t the player he used to be, but he’s still a solid starter who would probably prefer to play on a team with more legitimate postseason aspirations.
