On WEEI sports radio, Michael Irvin said there is an idea being discussed internally about trading Dak Prescott for Tom Brady.
From Irvin: “I am telling you right now, at the Super Bowl in Miami, some very significant people that I had conversations (with were) leaning in that same direction. It was shocking. I had a vodka cranberry in my hand and when they said it to me I put the drink down and said, ‘Let’s talk a little bit more about this.’
“I promise you, I had a conversation with people, I can’t tell you who, about that same scenario going down.”
All this gossip might be what the Cowboys COO Stephen Jones meant when he said ”things are starting to heat up” in reference to Dak Prescotts contract negotiations.
After this story picked up “heat” Irvin went to twitter to clarify that he was not in fact speaking with “Jerry [Jones] or anyone in the organization.”
I never said Jerry or anyone in the organization said this to me. It was NOT anyone with the @dallascowboys https://t.co/PYeHW6FNIw

Is it going to happen? Maybe, but would that be so bad, possibly get a good shake up at both organizations? The reality is, Tom Brady is reaching his golden age and Dak still has plenty of gas left in the tank. It’s a trade for name sake but it still fills the seats.
