According to ESPN’s John Clayton, the Dallas Cowboys will deal Mike Jenkins in Training Camp. Clayton says the demand for him is strong and the Cowboys could end up getting a 4th or even 3rd round pick for him. He also says that the Cowboys are just playing hardball with teams now to drive up the price. The Cowboys are publicly stating that they will not be moving him, in order to keep their depth at cornerback and possibly even frequently use 4-cornerback sets. Head Coach Jason Garrett was the first to say that Jenkins would not be moved and now Owner and GM Jerry Jones is seconding that.
While Clayton believes he’ll get moved, ESPN Dallas’ Ed Warder, who knows the Cowboys well, doesn’t see it happening. Right now, it looks like the Cowboys will not move Jenkins unless they’re blown away by a deal. However, they could be. If offered a 4th or 3rd round pick, I have to think they’d pull the trigger. Jenkins is their 4th cornerback, disgruntled, and a free agent after the season. A 3rd or 4th round pick is worth a lot more.
