The Dallas Cowboys and Minnesota Vikings have something in common right now: They could get a nice return for their wide receivers.
We could see plenty of movement before this year’s trade deadline, and we’ve seen multiple disgruntled players talking about their situations as of late.
With that in mind, Dan Orlovsky and Kimberley Martin debated on “First Take” about the wide receivers who could benefit the most from a change of scenery.

First, Martin made a case for Justin Jefferson, stating that he didn’t get the kind of money he was looking for, and he doesn’t even know who’s going to be throwing him the football next season.
The Minnesota Vikings are 1-4 and Kirk Cousins is in the final year of his contract, not to mention the fact that his supporting cast has struggled mightily as well.
Jefferson is arguably the best wide receiver in the game, so Orlovsky talked about the Indianapolis Colts, Kansas City Chiefs, and even Houston Texans as three teams that could be interested in making a run at him, although he doesn’t know whether the Vikings will want to trade him.
Orlovsky later talked about CeeDee Lamb, stating that it doesn’t make sense why the Cowboys don’t get him involved in the passing game.
He pointed out that Lamb is 30th in target share this season, adding that he should be getting at least 10 to 12 targets per game.
Orlvosky said that Lamb should demand a trade because this lack of production will take a toll on his ability to get paid, and it’ll be interesting to see if he follows his advice.
