Now, it appears Lamb is in danger of missing the next month of the season.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.cnn.com\/api\/v1\/images\/stellar\/prod\/gettyimages-1900185615.jpg?c=16x9&amp;q=h_833,w_1480,c_fill\" alt=\"Eye-popping trade proposal: Dallas Cowboys could land star playmaker for $12 million, amid news about CeeDee Lamb's future that has fans worried.\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">With Lamb sidelined, it may be time for the Cowboys to explore potential trades to add a playmaker. Find out why the\u00a0Carolina Panthers\u00a0could once again be a potential trade partner.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">Last November, the Cowboys acquired Panthers wideout Jonathan Mingo. Unfortunately, Mingo has been unable to make a significant impact on Dallas\u2019 offense.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">Through the first three games, Mingo has yet to record a reception for the Cowboys in 2025. One of Mingo\u2019s former teammates could make some sense for Dallas.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">Ahead of Week 3,\u00a0Bleacher Report\u2019s Kristopher Knox\u00a0listed Panthers wide receiver\u00a0Xavier Legette\u00a0among the top 10 potential NFL trade candidates.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">The former first-round pick has yet to live up to his potential with the Panthers. Carolina also just selected wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan with a top-10 pick in the 2025 NFL draft.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">Dallas will lean on George Pickens in Lamb\u2019s absence. It remains to be seen if the Cowboys will make an additional move for a wideout, but Legette could make some sense in Big D. The wideout\u2019s four-year,\u00a0$12.3 million rookie contract\u00a0is slated to go through the 2027 season.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/e01-phantom-marca.uecdn.es\/bb35b32930bf0422ed65b9084c44a52b\/crop\/0x0\/1978x1318\/resize\/828\/f\/jpg\/assets\/multimedia\/imagenes\/2024\/08\/06\/17229663935148.png\" alt=\"Eye-popping trade proposal: Dallas Cowboys could land star playmaker for $12 million, amid news about CeeDee Lamb's future that has fans worried.\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">What would Legette cost the Cowboys in a potential trade? Bleacher Report projects Legette\u2019s trade value as a conditional third-round pick in the 2026 NFL draft.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">\u201cLegette had his fair share of rookie struggles, but they weren\u2019t particularly alarming,\u201d Knox wrote in a September 15, story titled, \u201c2025 NFL Trade Block Big Board Entering Week 3.\u201d \u201cPlenty of first-year receivers have experienced growing pains, and Carolina\u2019s offense wasn\u2019t particularly good for most of the year. However, Legette has looked even worse through the first two weeks of his sophomore campaign.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">\u201c\u2026 Adding Legette would be a risk-reward move that could make a lot of sense for teams with questionable receiver depth. A third-round pick that could become a second based on statistical production would be a fair asking price for Carolina.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">The Panthers selected Legette with the No. 32 overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft. Legette is in his second season with the Panthers and has 53 receptions for 505 yards and four touchdowns during his time in Carolina.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">The playmaker posted 71 receptions for 1,255 yards and seven touchdowns during his final college football season at South Carolina in 2023. Here\u2019s how\u00a0NFL.com\u2019s Lance Zierlein\u00a0described Legette\u2019s scouting report heading into the 2024 draft.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">\u201cHis star shines brightest once the ball goes up and he\u2019s able to use his body control, play strength and ball skills to impose his will on the coverage,\u201d Zierlein noted in his pre-draft profile of Legette. \u201cHe\u2019s unlikely to become a smooth route runner, but he can handle tough catches and he has stealth acceleration that makes him a credible deep-ball threat.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">\u201cAdd toughness as a runner and run blocker to his profile of competitiveness and he becomes a Day 2 talent with the potential to develop into a starter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\"><strong>Jonathan Adams<\/strong>\u00a0is a veteran sports contributor covering the NFL, NBA and golf for Heavy.com.
