Cowboys Trade for Crosby, Boosting Defense

0:00On March 3rd, the Dallas Cowboys made a shocking move by trading away star Micah Parsons before the 2025 NFL season kicked off, but they still put together a solid year. A big reason for that was George Pickens stepping up as an elite number two wide receiver alongside CDLAM, giving their offense a bright future. Rich Eisen highlighted this on his show, praising the trade that brought Pickens over from the Pittsburgh Steelers. He suggested Dallas swing for the fences again by dealing their 12th overall pick in the 2026 draft to land Las Vegas Raiders. Defensive in Max Crosby. Fans and analysts see this as a smart way to rebuild the defense around players like Quentin Williams and Kenny Clark. With linebacker Demarby and Overshown expected back healthy and better coaching, the Cowboys could be contenders fast. Crosby, just 27 years old, plays nearly every snap and racks up about 10 sacks of season. His $106,500,000 contract extension makes him a premium talent worth the high draft pick price.

1:04For owner Jerry Jones, who loves bold trades, grabbing Crosby would shake up the league and set Dallas up for years of dominance on both sides of the ball.
