\"Chicago<\/p>\n

The Dallas Cowboys are not the worst team in the NFL, but they are currently the league’s laughingstock. It’s a tight race with the New Orleans Saints, but that Dallas is even in the conversation is a damning indictment on those who run the franchise.<\/p>\n

Even though they are 3-5 and will be without Dak Prescott for an extended period of time, the Cowboys went out and traded for Panthers wide receiver Jonathan Mingo. On the surface, taking a flier on a 23-year-old wideout with a strong athletic profile is a fine move.<\/p>\n

However, the Cowboys grossly overpaid for Mingo, sending a 2025 fifth-round pick to Carolina, proving once again\u00a0that this front office can’t negotiate.<\/p>\n

It was only a matter of time until another team struck a deal that made the Mingo trade look even worse. To add insult to injury, the architect was none other than Dan Quinn.<\/p>\n

Quinn and the 7-2 Commanders made the biggest trade of deadline day,\u00a0acquiring lockdown cornerback Marshon Lattimore from the Saints\u00a0for a trio of 2025 draft picks: a third-rounder, a fourth-rounder and a sixth.<\/p>\n
