Player for player trades are so hard to accomplish because teams typically overvalue their own while undervaluing someone else’s. We thought it would be good food for thought to look at the Cowboys roster and determine which players could be valuable trade assets if this team did make such a trade.
Keep in mind, the Cowboys aren’t trading any of their biggest stars, including their All-Pro linemen, their All-Pro running back, and certainly not their franchise quarterback. It would be a waste to even hint that they would be interested in trading cornerstone players. Also, there is common misconception among fans that if a guy isn’t doing well for your team that he can be shipped off to another team for some value.
