Jay Glazer strongly hinting Quinnen Williams may be getting moved, several Cowboy reporters speculating it's us.

Jets are going to own the next two drafts.

Too little too late I am afraid, but good move for the defense for the rest of this yr and the next few seasons. He's an excellent player.

Ironic that we tried to trade for him with Parsons before we sent him to GB, and now we are getting him after the fact.

Coincidentally, I was just thinking about whether Quinnen could be added. But I would really like to keep both number one picks. I think the season is lost.

I have mixed feelings about this. I don't know if I like it yet because of the potential cap issues and I had hoped that we could parlay a number 1 for several picks near draft day.

We'll need to get very lucky to make the playoffs this year, I think.

I doubt they made this trade with the hopes it was somehow saving the season. This seems like part of a plan for the future.

He's a really good DT, not many on his level and we certainly haven't had anyone as good as him inside in a long time.

Well, I'll be damned. Jerry actually pulled the trigger. Shot his hunting dog, guide, and two tires first, but better late than never I guess... 🤷‍♂️

Unconfirmed reports that it is a 2 this yr and 1 in 2027.

Kinda wish it were flipped as the 2027 draft (on paper anyway) is already being hyped as one of the best in recent memory. But we shall see what it ends up being.

Mazi, too. Worth it right there.

Looks like it is a 2026 2nd rd pick and one of the 2027 1st rd picks, PLUS Mazi Smith.

Including him may have helped get the trade to a 2nd and 1st instead of two 1sts. If so, good.

Per NFL Rumors, the first round pick for Williams is in 2027.

Dont know if they have the right coach and right now they dont have a QB, but they got draft capital for days.

Chance to have a major roster rebuild here.

If possible, I'd still like to see moves at DT. I'd like to see if the overall rotation can still be improved.

The Lions basically rebuilt with a lot of draft capital...and so did we many moons ago. It's a great way to get your cap situation in order and flood the team with young talent for at least a few years.

I'm a big fan of tanking. Unless people buy into the idea that the GM is not tanking but instead "adding by subtracting."
