Cowboys Rumour: Dallas Could Get a New Potential Starter in Broncos Running Back Javonte Williams
The Dallas Cowboys are in need of a new starting running back and there aren’t many good choices available in NFL free agency. Dallas might have to look to the trade market to bolster the position.
Alex Ballentine of Bleacher Report offered the Cowboys a number of possible trade alternatives to make a “splash” before the 2024 NFL Draft. Javonte Williams of the Denver Broncos is a name to keep an eye on.
Dallas would surrender their third-round pick (number 87 overall) in the proposed exchange.
Williams for a draft selection that Denver will receive. The move would make Williams the favourite to start for the Cowboys as a running back in Week 1 of the NFL Draft, depending on how the draft goes.
It’s important to investigate the trade market as well. In an article published on March 27, 2024, headlined “Cowboys’ Top Hypothetical Trades to Make Splash in 2024 NFL Draft,” Ballentine stated, “Javonte Williams’ name hasn’t really come up through the rumour mill, but he’s a logical target.”
“To start with, he has a respectable salary of $1.9 million and only one year left on his deal. Williams’ early NFL career has been hindered by injuries, but if he stays healthy, he has the talent to have a successful season.
