"I've been bullish on the Cowboys' defense improving over the course of this season. I didn't know they were going to specifically trade for Quinnen Williams and Logan Wilson ... but those opportunities existed given the draft capital they had from the Micah Parsons trade (which I still think was a bad move and I'm glad he's no longer in Dallas)."
"As someone familiar with the benefits of two wide receivers playing very well (A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith in the past), I can understand why Cowboys fans are excited about the duo of CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens. I still think it's crazy the Cowboys didn't pay Pickens at the time of acquiring him and I wonder if they'll be able to keep him."
The Cowboys have changed nearly half of their defensive personnel through trades and players returning to health. Draft capital from the Micah Parsons trade enabled acquisitions of Quinnen Williams and Logan Wilson. Additions and health recoveries for Malik Hooker, DeMarvion Overshown, and Shavon Revel materially alter the defensive roster. An average defense paired with a high-functioning offense would significantly boost team performance. The receiving duo of CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens presents a potent threat, and roster decisions around Pickens' contract create retention uncertainty. Starting cornerback Adoree' Jackson represents a potential defensive vulnerability against that duo.
