In his feisty interview on Tuesday morning, Jerry Jones mentioned quite a lot of various things when requested laborious questions in regards to the Dallas Cowboys.
One of many issues that Jerry appeared to take exception with was the concept the Cowboys had any severe avenues to discover by way of including to their roster in the intervening time. It isn’t a secret that the Cowboys are in want of assist, and with the commerce deadline getting nearer and nearer, many have questioned if they might discover issues a bit.
Following the staff’s most up-to-date loss to the Detroit Lions, Dak Prescott harkened again to the 2018 season when the staff fell to 3-4 and nonetheless wound up successful the division and a playoff sport. Quite a lot of that needed to do with the staff buying and selling for Amari Cooper which, once more, is why folks have been questioning if we might see one thing alongside these traces.
Again to the interview although, Jerry challenged the radio hosts (who he threatened to have eliminated as a result of line of questioning… significantly) about what attainable issues the Cowboys might do at the moment. By no means thoughts the truth that the New York Jets traded for Davante Adams on Tuesday or that the Buffalo Payments acquired Amari Cooper just a few hours later. Wait… Amari?!
On Tuesday afternoon Buffalo traded for Cooper and since that is the one method that this might probably go at this level, the Browns acquired extra for Cooper than they gave to the Cowboys after they initially traded for him in 2022.
The Cowboys very infamously acquired a fifth-round decide (and a sixth-round decide swap) from Cleveland in trade for Cooper. Merely put, it is likely one of the worst trades that the staff has made in franchise historical past.
That the Browns have been in a position to get extra for him after he’s an older and fewer achieved (so far as this present second) participant speaks quite a bit to only how disastrous the commerce actually was.
It’s price mentioning that Cleveland restructured Cooper’s contract months in the past, more likely to doubtlessly make this attainable, which definitely helps. However as we at all times say, these are mechanisms the Dallas Cowboys themselves might look to make use of and select to not.
Tuesday has been fairly the day for Jerry Jones, to say the least.
