Dallas Cowboys Explore Multiple Trades to Strengthen Running Back, Tight End Depth

The Dallas Cowboys have actively reshaped their running back roster this offseason by signing veterans Miles Sanders and Javonte Williams and drafting Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah, aiming for a committee approach behind a strong offensive line. Despite having six potential running backs, some fans and analysts have suggested trading for Antonio Gibson or Los Angeles Rams’ Blake Corum to add more playmaking depth, though experts argue that adding more backs may be redundant given the current roster and roster limits. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer is focusing on building a physical ground game, which might also include improving blocking by acquiring a powerful tight end like Pittsburgh Steelers' Darnell Washington, who is known for his run-blocking ability rather than receiving. However, skepticism exists around trading for Washington, given his limited production and the presence of somewhat more productive tight ends already on the Cowboys’ roster. Overall, the Cowboys appear committed to developing their current backfield and enhancing their run game through strategic additions rather than acquiring multiple new running backs. The team’s offseason moves indicate a desire to improve the rushing attack without overloading the depth chart, balancing veteran experience with promising young players.
