According to Moe Moton of Bleacher Report, the Kansas City Chiefs should make a blockbuster offer to the Dallas Cowboys before next season's trade deadline to acquire All-Pro wide receiver George Pickens.
"Dallas' hesitation to negotiate a long-term deal with Pickens opens up the possibility for a trade midway through the upcoming campaign," Moton wrote. "If Flournoy blossoms in a complementary role, the Cowboys could trade Pickens to a receiver-needy contending team like the Kansas City Chiefs, who don't have a reliable lead perimeter playmaker."
The Chiefs' wide receiver room continues to be under a microscope following the off-the-field and injury issues of Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy's recovery from offseason surgery. Kansas City committed a record-breaking extension to Patrick Mahomes, but they need a top target long-term for him to build with beyond the 2026 season.
Last season, Pickens hauled in 93 passes for 1,429 yards and nine touchdowns. He is a crucial part of the Cowboys' offense, but a bad start for the team in Dallas could force Jerry Jones to part ways with him intentionally outside the conference.
