BREAKING NEWS : Cowboys Mock Trade Pitch Would Secure $80M WR Alongside CeeDee Lamb

Dallas in dire need of firepower as run game, defense struggle

The Dallas Cowboys are in a bad way on offense with the worst rushing attack in the entire NFL.

And while the franchise could look to make an upgrade there ahead of the Nov. 5 trade deadline with a move for a player like Chuba Hubbard of the Carolina Panthers that might prove relatively inexpensive, Dallas is also potentially a player for a blockbuster deal involving wide receiver Cooper Kupp.

The Los Angeles Rams were far more likely to deal Kupp a couple of weeks ago, when they were 1-4 and he was on the injured reserve list (IR) with an ankle injury. Things have changed pretty dramatically since then, as the Rams are just a half game behind the three other teams in the NFC West — all of whom hold records of 4-4.

It’s difficult to see L.A. punting on the season when its roster is just starting to get healthy and with QB Matthew Stafford playing in his age-36 campaign. However, for the right price, Kupp may still be available. And however Cowboys owner Jerry Jones might try to spin it, Dallas has fallen quickly on desperate times after breaking the bank for Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb over the summer.

Jonathan Adams of Heavy.com authored a trade proposal on Friday, Nov. 1, that would ship Kupp to the Cowboys for a second-round pick.

“The case for the Cowboys making a move is Dallas needs more offensive firepower to go with Lamb,” Adams wrote. “Dallas is in danger of missing the postseason and may need to outscore teams with the way the defense has played in 2024.”

Kupp is on an $80 million deal that keeps him under contract through the 2026 campaign. That’s a steep price, especially considering it could cost a second-round pick to acquire him and that Cupp has battled injury issues over the last several years.

However, he also led the league in receptions (145), receiving yards (1,947) and TDs (16) in 2021 on his way to a First-Team All-Pro selection and a Super Bowl ring.

Pairing Kupp with Lamb and Prescott in their primes would cement a championship-level pass game in Dallas for multiple years to come. It would also afford Jones and company a core of elite offensive players around which to build.
