According to some sources, he was a hot commodity and the Cowboys received significant interest from other teams wanting to acquire him and the Cowboys gave a “hard no” to trading Gallup.

We’re paying plenty of offensive players already.I understand what you're saying, but you've gotta pay somebody. Everyone on the team can't make a million dollars a year otherwise, you have one of the worst teams in history. We're bad, but we're not the worst in history.
Once upon a time, Dak was making pennies/Jaylon Smith was making pennies/Zeke was making dollars/Tank was making pennies and the list goes on. Jerry wasted everyone of those rookie contracts, so what do you think he'll do with any new rookies? He'll waste them too. This is a never ending cycle going on with Jerry, so, if we want dominance, we have to draft well where the rookie defensive players are on 4 year contracts. If you can't do that, this cycle will rotate.We’re paying plenty of offensive players already.
Look at what we’ve invested into the OL, in terms of draft picks and cap dollars.
Our RB has the richest RB contract in the NFL and is underachieving, so we can’t trade him. We also drafted Mr. Fumbles with the #4 overall pick.
Our QB is making $31.4M this year and will make even more than that next year. He’s proven to be worth every penny since we’re clearly complete garbage without him.
And finally, we just spent a 1st round pick on another WR, who appears to be headed for stardom himself.
Now consider the fact that our defense has been historically awful this year. Somehow they’ve gotten even worse at taking away the ball, which I didn’t even think was possible.
Finally, pretend Amari Cooper wasn’t a Cowboy for a second. You’re the GM of the Cowboys and you have $20 mil/year to play with. Considering everything outlined above, would YOU spend that $20 mil/year on making Amari Cooper a Cowboy? Or would you spend it on the defensive side of the ball?
There’s your answer.
So spend that $20 mil/year in free agency on a few proven defensive stars, if you can.Once upon a time, Dak was making pennies/Jaylon Smith was making pennies/Zeke was making dollars/Tank was making pennies and the list goes on.

Sweet. This is good news for me. I want Gallup on this team for years to come.Michael Gehlken @GehlkenNFL
Cowboys are not willing to trade WR Michael Gallup before
Tuesday's NFL deadline, source said. If they were to deal a
top receiver, he wouldn't be the logical choice.

but he is also the leading reciever for the cowboys. with that said I would take a low first round pick for himThe “logical choice“, if anybody, is Amari Cooper and his huge salary.
LolWhy would anyone entertain the idea of trading Gallup ? He and Lamb are the team's present and future at WR............
Cooper's contract makes him an immoveable object.The “logical choice“, if anybody, is Amari Cooper and his huge salary.
Trade Gallup if you can get a first. We need a team to be desperate, lets see if we can get lucky.Michael Gehlken @GehlkenNFL
