3 Under the radar Dallas Cowboys trade targets

This one might be hard since it would require an in-division trade which is rare. It’s not impossible though as we have seen some big trades by divisional rivals. One of the biggest was when the New England Patriots traded Drew Bledsoe to the Buffalo Bills after Tom Brady took Bledsoe’s job.

There was a more recent one that included the team Ryan Kerrigan plays for as Washington landed Donovan McNabb in a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles. Could Washington again get involved with a rival and if so, would they be willing to be the ones who give up the veteran player?
If so, that could be beneficial for the Dallas Cowboys who could use some depth at defensive end. Following Robert Quinn’s departure in free agency, the Cowboys find themselves leaning on Tyrone Crawford and Aldon Smith.
Crawford is an underrated player but Smith hasn’t seen the field in over four years. As for Kerrigan, he’s a veteran player who finds himself behind Montez Sweat and Chase Young. In Dallas, he would potentially be a starter opposite DeMarcus Lawrence. While that’s a good thing for him, it might not be enough to convince Washington to send him to the hated Cowboys. Still, it doesn’t hurt to make a call and see what it would take to make this happen.
