"And with an aging quarterback who makes $60 million per season, who knows how many opportunities they're going to have. The time is now to pull out all the stops to win, which is why many people would love to see the front office trade away some of their extra premium draft resources to add a playmaker that can help them win right now. Who doesn't want to see that?"
"While Crosby may have been the focus of recent stories, there are more rumors that they could be interested in Trey Hendrickson, or some type of defensive playmaker. They have two extra first-round draft picks from the Micah Parsons trade, giving them a total of four over the next two drafts. While those picks will help strengthen the team in 2026 and in 2027, the front office could choose to spend those picks now to help them in 2025."
"Being aggressive and taking advantage of this window of opportunity certainly makes sense if they go about it correctly. However, the team should also be smart about it. Trading premium draft capital just for the sake of doing something isn't always the best move. There are consequences. So, while looking for the right trade is fine, shipping off precious draft resources for a proven commodity may not be the best approach, and here are some reasons why."
Dallas Cowboys sit 3-3-1 after a win, with a strong offense and sporadic defensive contributions. An aging quarterback earning $60 million per season creates urgency to maximize a limited championship window. Fans and some within the organization favor trading premium draft capital to acquire immediate playmakers. The team holds two extra first-round picks from the Micah Parsons trade, totaling four first-rounders across the next two drafts, which could be spent now or saved for 2026–27. Aggressive roster upgrades can make sense, but trading high draft capital carries long-term consequences and significant financial commitments for proven stars.
