The Dallas Mavericks shook the NBA world by trading away franchise superstar Luka Dončič. With the NFL offseason about to be in full swing, could the Dallas Cowboys make a shocking trade?
While outlining trade ideas that match the shockingness of the Dončič trade, Bleacher Report's Kristopher Knox proposed this trade between the Cowboys and Raves that would ship one of Dallas' franchise players to the Baltimore Ravens:
- Cowboys receive: wide receiver Zay Players, EDGE Kyle Van Noy and 2025 first-round pick
- Ravens receive: EDGE Micah Parsons
Parsons is not only one of the best players on the Cowboys, but he is also one of the best players in the league. He has made the Pro Bowl every season of his career and is a two-time All-Pro. Next season, he will be playing on his fifth-year option and is due for a massive payday. Trading him would surely be a shock, but Dallas would get a nice return.
Zay Flowers was a Pro Bowler this season and had his first 1,000-yard season. He had 1,059 yards and four touchdowns. Bringing him to the Cowboys where he would be the No. 2 option behind CeeDee Lamb could make him even better. Additionally, in this trade package, the Cowboys would also be getting Van Noy who just posted a 12.5 sack season. Van Noy is a two-time Super Bowl champion.
Dallas will do everything they can to keep Parsons. However, if the Cowboys continue to lose Parsons could look for a change of scenery. If the Cowboys have any doubt about losing Parsons in free agency or if he holds out, they should look to get a massive return for him.
