**Dallas Cowboys Owner Jerry Jones Hints at Major Trades Ahead of NFL Draft**
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has hinted at the possibility of making significant trades as the NFL Draft approaches this week. During a pre-draft press conference, Jones revealed that he is working on “two pretty substantive trades,” although he did not provide further details.
The Cowboys hold 10 draft selections across the seven rounds, and fans have expressed frustration over the team’s lack of major moves in recent offseasons. “We’re looking at two things that could happen before or after the draft,” Jones stated, as reported by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. “Two pretty substantive trades. Been working on today.”
Last offseason, the Cowboys opted not to sign veteran running back Derrick Henry, who later joined the Baltimore Ravens and had an impressive season. This year, the team has made several additions, including linebacker Kenneth Murray, running backs Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders, cornerback Kaiir Elam, and defensive lineman Solomon Thomas. Additionally, the Cowboys traded for quarterback Joe Milton from the New England Patriots.
While these moves aim to strengthen the team’s roster, the excitement surrounding them remains uncertain. The Cowboys are also focused on negotiating a contract extension for linebacker Micah Parsons. Dallas executive Stephen Jones commented on the ongoing discussions, saying, “Believe me, if we could sign Micah to a number we wanted to sign him to, we’d do it right now. But right now there’s a difference in what we feel like is the right number and what he feels like is the right number.”
Parsons has been participating in the Cowboys’ voluntary offseason program and expressed optimism that starting early will lead to success in the upcoming regular season. After finishing last season with a 7-10 record, the Cowboys are looking to make impactful changes to improve their performance.
