Remember back in October when the Dallas Cowboys reportedly wanted to nab Jamal Adams before the trade deadline? Well, they plan on trying to do that same thing after the 2019 season has concluded.
SNY NFL insider Ralph Vacchiano recently reported the stud safety, along with running back Le’Veon Bell, might be dangled on the trade block by the New York Jets this offseason, and the Cowboys are expected to be right there trying to get Adams again.
“He’s another player that league sources still expect the Jets might be willing to trade,” Vacchiano said. “The Cowboys, of course, were in hot pursuit at the trading deadline, and they are likely to try again this winter.”
Six weeks ago, it was reported the “Cowboys offered 1st round pick to acquire S Jamal Adams from NY Jets but wasn’t enough to get deal done. The negotiations went down to the final seconds.”
Dallas Morning News’ David Moore stated “Source added that Cowboys were willing to put together the sort of package Pittsburgh did to acquire Minkah Fitzpatrick (a 1st & switching picks on 3rd day) but wouldn’t go to the Jalen Ramsey level (two 1st round picks and a 4th).”
Jets wouldn’t bite.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones would later confirm that the franchise wanted Adams really bad and Adams, who is a Texas native, wanted to come home.
“The coverage of it has been pretty accurate,” Jones said on Nov. 1, via The Athletic. “We obviously were trying to utilize our (draft picks) to help the Cowboys better than we could’ve used the same picks in the draft.”
