4. Broncos receiver Emmanuel Sanders to the Cowboys

Even before they released Dez Bryant, the Cowboys needed to bolster their receiving crew. The additions of Deonte Thompson, Allen Hurns, and rookies Michael Gallup and Cedrick Wilson shouldn't change that. If the Cowboys are serious about contending in 2018, they'll need to provide quarterback Dak Prescott with a better supporting cast.

Meanwhile, the Broncos just drafted Courtland Sutton in the second round and DaeSean Hamilton in the fourth round. It already appeared to be unlikely that both Emmanuel Sanders and Demaryius Thomas would return in 2019, but those two draft picks cemented Sanders and Thomas' short-term status with a team that is trying to remake their offense. Instead of cutting Sanders after the season, when his dead cap shrinks to $2.7 million, the Broncos should try to trade him to a receiver-needy team.

Sanders might not be as good as he was at his peak, but his diminishing numbers have more to do with the Broncos' quarterback situation than his own abilities. He'd be a good fit in Dallas, immediately becoming the Cowboys' top receiver. The Broncos shouldn't expect more than a Day 3 pick in return, but they could use all the picks they can get their hands on.

Looks highly speculative to me. Either way we get two Mustang receivers on the same team.

I think it is more likely that Thomas is available than Sanders.

Isn't Sutton more similar in skill set to Thomas than Sanders? I would think they trade Thomas and keep Sanders and Sutton.
