Inside The Star
If you haven’t noticed by now, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens is very good at football.
He is in a contact year, so his play is probably a bit better than normal, or maybe it just because he actually has a quarterback that can get him the ball consistently.
Nonetheless, Jerry Jones, is once again going to cost this team in the long run. Ideally, this team should sign Pickens like today or tomorrow, but you know that is not going to happen, and Jones after Sunday’s win made sure to let everyone know who is in charge.
“Don’t pay any attention to that,” Jones said about the Pickens-Mulugheta situation, per Joseph Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News. “At all. No attention to that at all. Too much was made of that, that the agent actually had something to do with the ultimate decision of where we were. It almost had zero to do with it. Period. And that’s not a negative. It just didn’t have that kind of influence. I was going to be where I was with Micah relative to dollars and cents. I don’t care who represented him.”
The same agent that Micah has, Pickens also has, so what do we think is going to happen here?
The best thing to happen to this offense is adding George Pickens, and it really is not even up for debate.
If this team did not have him while CeeDee Lamb was out those three games, they would not have had a chance in any of them, and honestly they are sitting at 3-3-1 because of him and the rest of the offense.
Pickens has completely proved everyone wrong who said he would not work in Dallas because the Steelers gave up on him because of his off the field issues in the locker room, etc.
He has been nothing short of great, and him and CeeDee and Dak have a great bond.

Pickens leads the Cowboys with 607 receiving yards and six touchdown receptions (tied with tight end Jake Ferguson) for the season.
That said, No. 1 Dallas receiver CeeDee Lamb missed three games with a high ankle sprain before he torched the Commanders for 110 yards and a score on five catches.
The point is, Jerry is going to wait around and see how this year finishes, and if he does not end up signing him, it is going to be so frustrating.
This offseason is the best in football, and if you let him walk and think you can get this type of production next season without him paired with Lamb, it will be so funny to watch you get backlash just like he did with the Micah Parsons trade.
Use those first round picks for defense, and...
