With the NFL trade deadline just over a month away, the Dallas Cowboys are keeping a close eye on the ongoing trade saga surrounding Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams, according to NFL insider Dianna Russini of The Athletic.

Adams, a six-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro, has expressed his desire to leave the Raiders after three seasons.

His dissatisfaction with the team’s direction and the overall situation in Las Vegas has fueled speculation about a potential trade.

While the Raiders have maintained that they are in no rush to move Adams, the Cowboys, and several other teams have reportedly inquired about his availability.

If the Cowboys have their sights set on the veteran, their potential pursuit of Adams fits in with their continuous efforts to strengthen their receiving group. A move as such, could alleviate the pressure on CeeDee Lamb and give Dallas another dependable option, as the team would gain from including a playmaker like Adams in their offense.

His ability to create big plays and stretch defenses would undoubtedly enhance the Cowboys' passing game.

However, acquiring Adams would likely come at a significant cost. The Raiders are expected to demand a substantial trade package in exchange for the star wide receiver.

The Cowboys will need to carefully weigh the potential benefits of adding Adams against the cost of acquiring him.

As the trade deadline approaches, the situation surrounding Adams remains fluid. It remains to be seen whether the Cowboys will ultimately make a serious push to acquire him or if they will explore other options to address their receiving needs.
