The Dallas Cowboys have always been a team that thrives under intense scrutiny, and with rumors flying left and right about potential big moves in the wide receiver room, the debate is hotter than ever. Let’s talk about what’s been happening lately—and why you should care.
The Bold Prediction: T. Higgins to Dallas?
Fansided just dropped a bombshell: their number one bold prediction for the Cowboys’ offseason? T. Higgins, the standout wide receiver from the Bengals, could be headed to Dallas. If this happens, it would be one of the biggest splashes in recent years. After all, the Cowboys haven’t made a move like this since, well, forever.
But here’s the problem: it’s extremely unlikely. While Higgins is one of the top wide receiver free agents, there’s no chance the Cowboys will be able to secure him. Think about it—T. Higgins is part of one of the most electric offenses in the NFL, alongside Jamar Chase, and the Bengals would be foolish to let him go. Even if Higgins does hit the open market, Dallas would be far outbid. Teams that need a top-tier wideout will likely throw money at him, offering him a contract worth upwards of $28 million per year. And let’s face it—Dallas isn’t going to pay that, nor should they. At best, he’s a number two wide receiver, and that price tag is absurd for a player with a history of injuries.
The Reality Check: Stefan Diggs Might Actually Happen
Now let’s get into something that actually makes sense: Stefan Diggs. The rumors are swirling, and unlike the long-shot T. Higgins prediction, the possibility of Diggs coming to Dallas is far more likely. Why? Well, for starters, his brother Trevon Diggs is already a star cornerback for the Cowboys, and the family reunion could be just what the team needs.
But here’s the real kicker—Stefan Diggs is coming off a torn ACL, which might make him cheaper than usual. And with the Cowboys desperately needing a reliable number two receiver opposite CeeDee Lamb, Diggs could be a perfect fit. Sure, his injury raises red flags, but the potential upside is undeniable. If the Cowboys can get him on a one-year deal for a reasonable price, it would be a huge win.
However, there are concerns. Diggs is a diva in the making. Do the Cowboys want to add another potential locker room headache? If Diggs is not on board with being the second option, the drama could derail the team’s chemistry. And while the price might be right, the Cowboys will have to decide if it’s worth the risk.
What’s Next? The Draft
If Diggs doesn’t end up in Dallas, the team has no choice but to look to the draft. Tony Pauline, a well-known NFL reporter, has already suggested that the Cowboys are seriously considering taking a wide receiver in the first two rounds of the upcoming draft. With Brandon Cooks potentially leaving and other options like Jalen Tolbert still unproven, the Cowboys have a glaring need at wide receiver. They can’t rely on players who have shown little promise to step up and fill the void.
So, What Does This All Mean?
The Cowboys are at a crossroads. The wide receiver room needs an upgrade, but the options are limited. T. Higgins is the dream that will likely never happen, while Stefan Diggs could be the answer that comes with some drama and risk. And if all else fails, expect Dallas to make a move in the draft.
