NFL Trade News: Cowboys nearly pulled off stunning deal for $54 million Pro Bowl linebacker before talks broke down
The Cowboys’ failure to land Azeez Al-Shaair highlights both ambition and restraint in their roster-building approach.

With ongoing concerns around injuries and consistency, the Cowboys may still turn to a veteran like Bobby Wagner to stabilize the unit before the season begins.
