Irate Twitter users clown Cowboys, Jerry Jones for Jonathan Mingo deadline trade

The Dallas Cowboys have made a trade! Wait, the Cowboys gave up what? For who?!

That’s about the extent of the reaction to the news that was first teased on Jerry Jones’ radio appearance Tuesday morning and was later fleshed out by reporters. The Cowboys have given up their 2025 fourth-round pick to acquire WR Jonathan Mingo from the Carolina Panthers. Dallas also brought back Carolina’s seventh rounder in the exchange. Fans, still disgruntled over seeing Amari Cooper net more compensation going from Houston to Buffalo than he did from Dallas to Houston, and the fourth-round pick for QB Trey Lance, and on and on and on, are understandably scratching their heads at this move made the same day they 3-5 Cowboys placed QB Dak Prescott on IR.

The move led to some great tweets on X (formerly known as Twitter, and maybe again soon).
