Cowboys Trade for Gary, Hendrickson Hopes Fade

0:00On March 9th, the Dallas Cowboys are rebuilding their pass rush after trading Michael Parsons. On Monday, they struck a deal with the Green Bay Packers to bring in defensive linemen, Rashan Gary, hoping he feels the gap on their line. That move has sideline them in the chase for free agent, Trey Hendrickson. The Cowboys made a quick check on the former Bengal, but they're not pushing hard unless his asking price drops significantly. Hendrickson just wrapped up a monster year with 17 and a half sacks, his best ever, and 81 over nine seasons in the league. Teams everywhere want that kind of production, but Dallas lacks the cap space right now. Gary brings solid credentials from seven years in Green Bay, including 271 tackles, 111 quarterback hits, and 46 and a half sacks. He earned a pro-bowl nod last year with seven and a half sacks and mashed it this season. With Gary locked in, the Cowboys can shift focus to integrating him and building around their new defensive anchor for the stretch run.
