The Cowboys will have an opportunity to draft a wide receiver in the first round, but with other needs on the roster, the front office might believe heading in a different direction could be a better plan.<\/p>\n<p>If the Cowboys want to find an explosive wide receiver, one could be available in\u00a0Tyreek Hill, the Miami Dolphins\u2019 star. Hill, arguably the best wide receiver in the NFL when he\u2019s at the top of his game, has flirted with some trade rumors over the past few months. He\u2019s been upset about how the Dolphins have played, and could welcome a new home in Dallas.<\/p>\n<p>In a proposed trade idea from an NFL insider, he had the Cowboys landing him in what would be considered a \u201csplash\u201d trade.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Cowboys used to be addicted to the \u201csplash move,\u201d but they\u2019ve been stagnant as of late. Acquiring Hill would be the kind of blockbuster that vaults them back into the limelight, for better or worse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHill is aging, but Dallas needs a proven running mate for CeeDee Lamb, as evidenced by the club\u2019s pursuit of Cooper Kupp. And they\u2019ve still got more than $30 million in 2025 salary cap space,\u201d\u00a0Cody Benjamin of CBS Sports wrote.<\/p>\n<h2>Others View Hill as an Option<\/h2>\n<p>Benjamin isn\u2019t the only one who believes the Dallas Cowboys are a potential landing spot for Hill if the Miami Dolphins move on from him.<\/p>\n<p>The Dolphins could use draft assets and get off Hill\u2019s money, something the front office could be interested in doing as they aren\u2019t in a position to win a Super Bowl right now.<\/p>\n<p>Steve DelVecchio of YardBarker also proposed the idea of the Cowboys landing Hill, adding that\u00a0Jerry Jones\u00a0eventually has to make a splash and do what\u2019s needed for this team to start competing with the other best squads in the NFL.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow long can Jerry Jones go without making a huge splash? The Cowboys need to sign Micah Parsons to an extension, but they could find a way to do that and add Hill. What better way to welcome new head coach Brian Schottenheimer than by gifting him with a wide receiver duo of Hill and CeeDee Lamb?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDak Prescott will turn 32 this summer. The quarterback has been banged up in recent years, and his prime will not last forever. You know Jones\u2019s eyes are going to light up if Hill wants a change of scenery,\u201d\u00a0DelVecchio wrote.<\/p>\n<h2>Cowboys Want a Flashy WR<\/h2>\n<p>The Dallas Cowboys have made it known that they\u2019re interested in adding a flashy wide receiver. If the Cowboys are still interested in adding an explosive No. 2 option, there aren\u2019t many better players in the NFL for them to do so with than Hill.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re still open to looking at a really explosive number two that could upgrade us,\u201d\u00a0Stephen Jones said, per PFN. \u201cBut as I said, I like our room and certainly like the players we currently have.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hill can make plays in multiple ways, and would open up the rest of the Cowboys\u2019 offense. Even if it comes at a steep price regarding his cap hit, the Cowboys would be built to win now if they added him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Getty Dak walking off the field Dak Prescott\u00a0and the\u00a0Dallas Cowboys\u00a0could use another wide receiver, but there aren\u2019t many on the free agency market they could pursue.
