Most 3-5 teams who just lost their starting quarterback to a significant hamstring injury would entertain selling players on expiring contracts at the trade deadline. Don't tell that to Jerry Jones, who insists on shipping off assets in the name of staying relevant.

The Dallas Cowboys made a move on trade deadline day, acquiring wide receiver Jonathan Mingo from the Carolina Panthers. The initial reaction to the trade has not been kind to the Cowboys with many saying the team overpaid for the former second round pick. Put in context with some of the team's other recent trades and it's easy to see why.

The Cowboys see something in one of the NFL’s worst young receivers, but that doesn’t mean this is good value.
