In a trade block big board piece on Bleacher Report, writer Kristopher Knox the Detroit Lions, as well as the Cowboys, as a potential suitor for Young.

It makes sense for the 2-5 Saints as well, because their season is starting to look broken and they’re now likely looking ahead to a 2025 season in which they’re expected to be massively over the salary cap.

Trading Young could help the Saints start to build a new war chest.

Trading pass-rusher Chase Young, who is on a one-year, $13 million deal, would provide no 2025 cap relief. However, it would net the Saints some valuable draft capital. Young has tallied 1.5 sacks and 13 quarterback pressures in seven games this season,” Knox wrote. The Dallas Cowboys, who are dealing with the injuries of DeMarcus Lawrence and Micah Parsons, should also be interested. Cowboys defensive line coach Jeff Zgonina coached Young with the Commanders in 2022 and 2023.”

There’s a need here for the Cowboys as well as a connection to Young via Jeff Zgonina. Now, Jones will have to pony something up in order to keep Young from going to a pass-rush-needy team like the Lions. The Cowboys need help just as much, if not more, so it’s imperative that Jones takes this potential trade piece seriously.
