News: PFT: Jerry Jones: Creating cap space gives us room to make a trade

With 30 mil of space it looks like we will make a trade using our 1st next year and possibly our 2nd in 28. Someone will call Jerry knowing he's itching to make a trade

That could happen or they can use it on Pickens next year.
 
I appreciate Jerry’s aggressive nature this year but I prefer the draft picks if next years draft is as deep as folks are saying. I guess the Jones trade was necessary due to Smiths injury, hope it pans out and Jones puts it together.

I know everyone is excited about this season, but I still contend we haven’t built a championship ship team when it comes to a winning culture, tough mindset, decision making process and discipline.

Feels like we are always 2 dumb penalties away from losing winnable games and the team folds under the spotlight. I also don’t believe in Shotty.

Hope I am proven wrong!

Too early in the year for teams to make trades. They will wait to see how the season unfolds by week7 or 8.
As values can go up or down depending of a team wants a players bad enough. Or a team wants to dump players bad enough. Such as a salary cap dump.

using it for Pickens will be great. If he has a follow up year like last year.
 
Wild, wild guess on my part but keep an eye on Joey Porter Jr. I'm hearing the Steelers have made him an offer but it's not close to what he wants. Could we see a Pickens 2.0......Jerry trades our 2nd-round pick with the idea of having him for at least 2 years ( 2026 and 2027 tag ). This would basically lock down our CB position.






 
To me it’s just Jerry stating the obvious- although we hate it because it’s Jerry talk. We are just maintaining flexibility in case the right player becomes available for the right deal.

If not we can carry it over to next season. Nothing more nothing less. Rather it be this way than us to be completely rigid and no potential for moves

Porter is far more adamant than Pickens ever was about a new contract. It wont go the same way. If you trade for Porter, you would smart to extend him

Jeopardy: Who is Jerry Jones, GM of Dallas Cowboys

Jerry is a very good trader. Recently has done all this:
  • The two trades he just pulled off in the draft were perfect. Nicely done but not the same as most teams are adhering to a trade chart
  • The Parsons trade was too - the Cowboys have already won that trade. Remains to be seen, certainly should have extracted more from Packers
  • Gary for just a 4th? Slight overpay (as of now)
  • Quinnen Williams Remains to be seen but I believe an overpay
  • Winters for just a 5th? Nothing to get excited about
  • Getting B. Jones by just moving up half a round and a 6th? OK
  • Getting a 3rd for Odighizuwa. Good trade

A brilliant move by Jones, a loaded 2027 draft class and we are trading our picks away.

Coaches need an influx of new talent each year to work with. Having 2 first round picks this year, getting back a 3rd and a new Defensive Coordinator has provided a great deal of energy to the team and excitement.

“with Broderick Jones' trade taking care of offense”

Ok, this is just nuts. The dude has seriously underperformed his entire career, was the Steelers Mazi, had spinal fusion, is still working on increasing his weight, strength and conditioning and he’s “taking care of offense”

And we gave up what will likely still net out in the trade math as a third round pick, in he deepest draft in a decade or more.

I’ve been on board with the coaching changes, and was ok with getting a bunch of B+ or below players in our earlier trades and free agency. It was probably the best we could do with what we have.

But setting a 3rd round pick on fire in exchange for a guy who will not make a significant contribution this year and is a free agent in six months really bothers me.

It was dumb but I'm guessing he'll be that feel good story, he'll play well enough and will take over for us next season. He will get a new deal that people on here will break down and explain how many times that it was a good deal the cowboys signed him to
 
I would do nothing right now, but if we get to the trade deadline, are in first place in our division, are relatively healthy, offense hitting on all cylinders, and defense steadily improving, then and only then, I trade next year's #1 pick and do whatever it takes to be even better and deeper for a shot at reaching the NFC championship game.
