So the Dallas Cowboys have publicly discussed making a trade, and there's one big name that makes plenty of sense
0:11
Hey, what's up, everyone? It's Mauritius Rodriguez here at ADZ Sports Dallas. I know we are talking about the cowboys in general just being super conservative when it comes to team building. At least we've done so the last few days
0:24
But there's one thing that I have hope that they will be selectively aggressive on, and that is
0:30
making a trade for a player that will actually make an impact in 2025
0:37
The reason why I say that is we've had several instances where Jerry and Stephen Jones are
0:42
talking to the media, and at least once or twice each of these guys has said, listen
0:49
we could trade for somebody. And that's interesting. The fact that they're mentioning the possibility of a trade and even on Wednesday after the Sack March in retirement press conference, it came up again
1:01
So you look at what the Cowboys did a couple of years ago when they gave up a fifth rounder and a sixth rounder to get Stefan Gilmore and Brandon Cooks That was quality team building right Credit where credit is due
1:14
That's what you want from the Cowboys. You want them to go seek some talent before we get to
1:20
April and the NFL draft. So the whole thing about this show will be, is there a name out there
1:26
that makes sense for the Cowboys to cover a big time need? And I think there is at least one
1:33
And as I discuss like all of these needs for the Cowboys, there's one that makes sense to me in the trade market
1:40
Because sure, you need some offensive line depth and you could use a linebacker and you could use a cornerback
1:46
But the one position that really comes up to like sticks out of the page, I think it's wide receiver
1:52
And DK Medcaf available for trade might make more sense than we think
1:58
Now, shout out to Shane Carter. All right. My guy Shane Carter tweeted out for what it's worth
2:03
not only does D.K. Medcaf have a connection with the Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian
2:08
Schoenheimer having coached him for two years in Seattle but Medcaf and wide receiver C Lamb are both represented by the same agent Tori Dandy Now that an interesting connection the chain is making there and it noteworthy for sure
2:23
That's not the only reason why I think the pairing between Medcaf and the Cowboys would make sense, though
2:29
Medcaf might not be as expensive as he thinks he will be in this offseason
2:34
And Diana Rusini from the Athletic tweeted out that the Seahawks might want a first rounder and a third rounder
2:40
and on top of that, Medcalf is seeking a $30 million contract
2:44
I just, I'm not buying that he's going to get that. I'm not buying that the Seahawks are going to get that either
2:50
Jacina Anderson from CVS reported that there's at least one NFL team that is willing to offer the Seahawks a third rounder
2:58
Now, that doesn't necessarily mean that's the minimum price stack because if they're not willing to give Metcalf a extension
3:06
then the trade might not happen at all anyways. but I could see a scenario where Metcalf's prize ends up dropping and then it could make sense for the Cowboys to give up even a third round pick
3:19
Now it would be an aggressive move and it would be somewhat uncharacteristic from the cowboys But if inside that building they feel like Macmillan might not make it to number 12 in the NFL draft
3:31
and they start getting real worried about their wide receiver situation, could they give up a third rounder to give CD Lam someone to work with
3:41
Maybe it might be a little bit far-fetched, but in theory, it makes sense
3:46
Football-wise, it makes sense. And if we were talking about a competent front office, then it would make plenty of sense
3:53
As long as Medcaf's insane $30 million demands are not as set in stone, because I don't think he's going to get that
4:02
Again, I insist. Now, granted, we are talking about the same team that once it had Amari Cooper and City Lamb, they just said goodbye to Amari
4:10
And then later got rid of Michael Gallup because the deal was just so bad
4:15
So I know this is not exactly the team that we should be believing in to really drop two backs at the wide receiver position
4:22
But again, it's kind of a smart move. And I hope that the Cowboys will consider it because it is one of the easiest ways to improve this football team in 2025
