Way back in the days of the 2018 offseason, the Dallas Cowboys were shopping around for wide receivers. In a weird way.
Dallas had eyes for Sammy Watkins who was coming off of a one-year stint with the Los Angeles Rams. They were outbid for his services by the Kansas City Chiefs and wound up with Allen Hurns. This was a weird consolation prize even though statistically they were actually quite comparable.
About a month after this whole affair, the Cowboys further clouded the situation by releasing Dez Bryant.
