In a bit of an atypical move, the Dallas Cowboys made a trade to acquire Johnathan Hankins from the Las Vegas Raiders. It was generally seen as a solid acquisition to shore up a weakness on the defense, adding a huge run-stopping DT for a cheap price. In that respect, it still fit the front office MO. Other teams, such as the undefeated Philadelphia Eagles, are being much more aggressive. The trade deadline for the NFL is Tuesday, during the Cowboys’ bye week. There is still time for Dallas to add more talent to the roster.
