    Their key want? Edge rusher.

    (Who may have predicted that following the commerce of star cross rusher Micah Parsons?)

The Bengals’ Trey Hendrickson is an alternative choice on the sting, however he’d want a brand new contract after this season, and also you may need heard, that was (*9*) The Titans’ Jeffery Simmons, beneath contract by means of 2027, makes extra sense in the context of Jones’ said ambition to enhance the run protection.

    But greater than something, the Cowboys want to ask themselves in the event that they’re actually one participant away from even an honest protection to complement their elite offense, particularly with vast receiver George Pickens doubtlessly due a giant new contract. If the answer is no, then it makes extra sense to train warning this commerce deadline.
