The Dallas Cowboys made the splashiest move they’ve made in years on Wednesday when they traded for Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens. It was the icing on the cake for a team that has been very active in addressing weaknesses, as it was the last thing remaining on their offseason checklist. And it was a big one.
The Cowboys’ offense has suffered immensely when they’ve tried to rely on players like Allen Hurns, Noah Brown, or Jalen Tolbert to fill bigger shoes than they’re capable of, and each time, the front office has responded by making a trade for a new wide receiver.
