Pickens Demands Trade or Long-Term Deal

0:00On April 27th, star-wide receiver George Pickens just dropped a bombshow ultimatum to the Dallas Cowboys. He wants a long-term deal or a trade. This comes straight from ESPN Insider, Adam Schaefter, on the Pat McAfee Show. Pickens hasn't signed his $27.3 million franchise tag yet, even though the Cowboys figured he was on board during draft, weekend. Earlier this week, the Cowboys added depth by signing veteran Speedster, Marquez Valdez Scanling, plus Tyler Johnson and Curtis Robinson. Pickens has been chilling, vacationing with teammate Citi Lam and working out with Dak Prescott, showing no real signs of beef before this rumor. Hit? Cowboys owner Jerry Jones laid it out clear. Signing the tag and balling out with Prescott is in Pickens' best interest for life, pocketing that cash. On the way, a teen source called the trade talk straight news to them, no deal happening. They won him playing under the tag in 2026, no summer negotiations.

1:01Dallas pays Citi Lam 34 million a year, but hesitates with Pickens over his past behavior issues. They need proof he's the right fit. Last season, he crushed it with 93 catches, 1,049 yards and 9 touchdowns, all career highs with minimal. Bottom line, the Cowboys hold all the power, a holdout would cost Pickens millions and rep. His best move is repeating that fire year, but if he's, scheming for headlines, Dallas stays locked in, no trades on the horizon.
