The Dallas Cowboys are in a difficult position ahead of the NFL trade deadline on November 5th due to their 3-3 start. The Cowboys might become buyers and add more quality to an already good team if they win a few more games during the next two weeks. Dallas might be forced to deal deadline sellers if they suffer one or two more losses.
This means that Sunday’s game against the 49ers, who are an equally desperate 3–4 San Francisco squad, is crucial. However, a loss might even make the Cowboys more active before the deadline, ensuring that this team doesn’t miss the postseason, assuming we know them as well as we believe we do. Despite all of the uncertainty surrounding Dallas, one NFL observer is assured of the Cowboys’ strategy to the trade deadline this season.
The Dallas Cowboys are encouraged to purchase trades by the deadline.
Before the NFL trade deadline, nobody knows what Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys are up to. In an attempt to establish themselves as one of the top NFC teams, they might be adopting a wait-and-see strategy. However, they now hold the third position in the NFC East. Nevertheless, Saad Yousuf of The Athletic maintains that the Cowboys should be trade deadline buyers regardless of where they are in the current NFL rankings.
“The Cowboys are still in the running for the division and should soon begin to get key injured players back, despite the optics of their losses this season. DeMarcus Lawrence and Marshawn Kneeland are anticipated to return later, while Micah Parsons, Brandin Cooks, and DaRon Bland all seem to be close to making a comeback. The Cowboys still have big roster gaps, particularly at defensive line and running back, despite those additions. The Cowboys must make the trades they can if they truly want to be all in and hope for a late-season run into the playoffs.
The Washington Commanders, who are in first place and may have to play without Jayden Daniels this weekend and possibly longer, are only 2.5 games behind the Cowboys. The Cowboys could be able to push their way back to the top of the NFC East with that crease, and adding one or two more impact players could help them do so.
