Mandatory Credit: Kevin Jairaj-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Cowboys Jerry Jones: &#8220;I&#8217;m Open&#8221; To Another Trade<\/h2>\n<p>At this point, it&#8217;s safe to assume any trade will address the defensive side of the ball. While they could obviously use another pass rusher, it&#8217;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&#8217;s biggest issue is probably in the secondary, and while the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2025\/09\/12\/jerry-jones-traded-micah-parsons-to-pay-other-guys-one-is-already-hurt\/\" target=\"_self\">eventual return of DaRon Bland<\/a> will improve the unit, they could use another safety. San Francisco&#8217;s Ji&#8217;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&#8217;s squad.<\/p>\n<p>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 <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2025\/04\/14\/jaydon-blue-2025-nfl-draft-profile\/\" target=\"_self\">fifth-round pick Jaydon Blue<\/a> can&#8217;t get onto the field. If the Cowboys want another running back, they could trade with the Saints for Alvin Kamara. Kamara isn&#8217;t the player he used to be, but he&#8217;s still a solid starter who would probably prefer to play on a team with more legitimate postseason aspirations.<\/p>\n<p><em>Main Photo: Raymond Carlin &#8211; Imagn Images<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said he&#8217;s looking to trade for established players that can help the 2025 Cowboys make the playoffs<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2376,"featured_media":247534,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"no","_lmt_disable":"","sfio_featured_image":false,"sfio_embed_code":"","_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[36,19,6431],"tags":[1573,7422,889,9952],"class_list":["post-247533","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl-news","category-cowboys","category-nfl-teams","tag-alvin-kamara","tag-dallas-cowboys-news","tag-jerry-jones","tag-jiayir-brown"],"modified_by":"Michael Kovacs, ADMIN","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/247533","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2376"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=247533"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/247533\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":247572,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/247533\/revisions\/247572"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/247534"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=247533"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=247533"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=247533"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
