Cowboys Eye Vet Wagner, Trade for Greenard

0:00On March 17th, the Dallas Cowboys still need help at linebacker after a slow start to free agency. They're now linked to veteran Bobby Wagner, the 36-year-old standout who just wrapped up a strong season with the Washington commanders. Wagner racked up 162 tackles, 4.5 sex, and two interceptions last year. A 10-time pro-bola and future hall of famer, he knows Cowboys' defensive coordinator Brian Schattenheimer from their Seattle days. He provided media stability and mentor young players. Meanwhile, early interest in Pittsburgh's Patrick Queen has cooled. The Steelers shopped him after a down year with 120 tackles, but just one sack, and Dallas pulled back on Thursday. On the edge, with top names like Tray Hendrix and Off the Board, teams including the Cowboys are eyeing a trade for Minnesota's Jonathan Greenard. The 28-year-old had 12 sacks in 2024 before injuries limited him this season, and a third round pick might get it done.

1:00As the draft nears in late April, Dallas plans to grab a long-term linebacker fix with their top picks while sorting these short-term moves to bolster. The defense right away.
