"The famous line from the 1990s was that the Cowboys couldn't spell Super Bowl until they got Charles Haley. Dak Prescott is in his prime. CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, much of the offensive line, the kicker, the returner, some of the defensive linemen, they all are in their primes. So shouldn't Dallas trade a first-round pick for a proven veteran who can immediately help them make a run? - William Franklin/ Hinton, WV"
"Sure, if it makes sense. If it's a massive contract or a player on an expiring deal, I think it would be tough to rationale with that given the amount of needs that the Cowboys have defensively. No one player is going to fix that, even if that one player can really help you. On the flip side, there aren't going to be many big-time difference makers available that are under contract, at a workable price and worth just one first round pick."
The Cowboys possess numerous offensive and special-teams players in their primes, including Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, much of the offensive line, the kicker, and the returner. A trade for a proven veteran could provide immediate help but may be hard to justify if it requires a massive contract or an expiring deal. Defensive needs remain extensive and no single player will fix them. Acquiring additional draft capital, particularly on Day 2, can help fill gaps given the current lack of second- and third-round picks. The 2026 NFL Scouting Combine will feature 319 participants and several notable prospects lacked invites.
