The Dallas Cowboys have a lot of questions to answer and holes to fill heading into the offseason. The Cowboys missed the NFL Playoffs with a record of 7-10. The team will have to hire a new coach after the team parted ways with Mike McCarthy. There’s also questions surrounding the roster, and one analyst offers an interesting solution.
Our Mike Fisher has talked and written a great deal about how Dallas is short-handed when it comes to consistent explosive offensive weaponry outside of CeeDee Lamb.
This spring, Dallas can manufacture $100 million in cap room.
In short, the Cowboys – if willing – can buy their way out of this problem.
To that end, Bleacher Report has written an article detailing several intriguing trade options for this offseason. One concerning the Cowboys has them landing star wideout Davante Adams.
The deal would have the Cowboys sending a third-round pick and a fifth-round pick to the New York Jets for the wideout.
Adams finished the year with 1,063 yards across 14 games, three for the Raiders and 11 for the Jets. Adams has recorded 1,000 yards in six of the last seven seasons (his one miss – a 997 yard 2019, in which he only played 12 games).
Adams has twice led the NFL in receiving touchdowns.Adams is a six-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro selection.
Adams has forced his way out of two situations, first pushing for a trade from Green Bay to Las Vegas to reunite with fellow Fresno State alum Derek Carr, then once again this season when he managed his way to the Jets to reunite with Aaron Rodgers.
Rodgers’ future in the NFL and with the Jets is up in the air, and if Rodgers isn’t with the team next season, it’s likely Adams will look to go elsewhere once again.
While him landing on the Cowboys would no longer be due to reuniting with Mike McCarthy, Adams has expressed lots of admiration for Lamb.
Adams referred to Lamb as a top-five wide receiver and compared Lamb to himself on the I Am Athlete podcast in May 2023.
If Davante at age 32 is judged to have plenty left in the tank? A pairing of Adams and Lamb would prove to be among the NFL’s premier receiver duos.
