Before the deadline of November 5, the Dallas Cowboys still have some time to make a trade, and one NFL analyst and expert has a suggestion on who they ought to deal. Nick Villano listed one player from each NFL team that he thought ought to be traded at the 2024 trade deadline in a FanSided story published on September 30. Villano recommends trading a long-time Cowboys quarterback for another player.

Cowboys quarterback is “about to have no value to the Cowboys,” according to one NFL analyst.

Villano states in the story that the Cowboys “have to look to the future,” which entails examining their group of quarterbacks. Dak Prescott is their starting quarterback right now, with Cooper Rush and Trey Lance serving as backups.

Behind Dak Prescott, who probably will not play much for this squad other than as insurance, they have two really decent quarterbacks, according to Villano. “Having one quarterback like that who can take over at any moment and holds the clipboard is perfectly OK. Two is too many, particularly considering that there have been two seasons.Here’s where Rush enters the picture. 2017 saw Rush sign with the Cowboys. Although the New York Giants claimed him off waivers in May 2020, he resigned with the Cowboys that October and has been a member of Dallas ever since.

Rush has spent several years with the Cowboys, but Villano believes it is time to let him go.

Cooper Rush is not as valuable as he once was, but the Cowboys are set to lose him, according to Villano. There is not much use in developing two quarterbacks behind Prescott after Dallas gave him to the wealthiest contract this offseason. Developing one who is earning high dollar for a backup especially makes no sense. Rush currently earns $2.5 million, but when he becomes a free agency this offseason, he might earn considerably more.

Villano went on, “The Cowboys would gain an asset by trading Rush now without really losing anything of worth. Rush is just an asset worth shopping for now that Trey Lance is in the lineup.
Dak Prescott is first in line, followed by Cooper Rush.

Villano’s theory does have one drawback: Rush is the Cowboys’ backup quarterback, behind Prescott.

“Mike McCarthy established it as fact. Cooper Rush is the backup quarterback for the Cowboys,” Clarence Hill Jr. of All City DLLS stated in a statement posted on X on September 2, 2024. Trey Lance made amazing progress, and they want to keep helping him grow. However, Rush is, predictably, a QB2.

McCarthy praised Lance as well, even though he acknowledged that Rush is their second best player.

McCarthy stated on September 2 that “Cooper’s taken the No. 2 reps this week, but I felt very encouraged and really excited with the growth that Trey took through the whole process.” “I feel like I always respond to questions in the same way. All we have to do is keep developing him. His areas of concentration are clearly visible. The idea, gait, and other such aspects. Every week during the preseason, it improved.”I thought he did a great job extending plays with his legs,” the man continued. made a few plays when it came to the quarterback run. Just trying to continue that drop back passing. Trey Lance is making progress, and I am not sure if anyone else on our squad gained more from the preseason than he did.
