The Dallas Cowboys did it. They made themselves a trade. For a brief moment, the “we like our own guys” front office decided to deviate from their playbook and like someone else’s guy. On Tuesday, the Cowboys sent their 2023 sixth-round pick to the Las Vegas Raiders for the 10-year veteran defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins. The Cowboys will also receive the Raiders' 2024 seventh-round pick as part of the deal.
The Cowboys are looking to strengthen their run defense. During the Jason Garrett era since 2014, the Cowboys have been pretty solid for the most part at stopping the run.
