Buffalo Bills Propose Trade: James Cook for All-Pro Pass Rusher

The Buffalo Bills have reportedly put running back James Cook on the trading block in a bold move to acquire an All-Pro pass rusher, signaling their determination to strengthen their defense and chase a Super Bowl this season.

Bills RB James Cook named AFC Offensive Player of the Week

According to sources close to the team, the Bills have offered James Cook—who is entering the final year of his contract and seeking a major extension—as the centerpiece of a trade package for an elite pass rusher, with Dallas Cowboys’ Micah Parsons named as a primary target. The rumored deal includes Cook plus three draft picks (a 2026 first-rounder, 2027 second-rounder, and 2026 fourth-rounder) in exchange for Parsons, who is currently in a contract dispute with the Cowboys.

This proposed trade is significant for both franchises.

  • For the Bills, acquiring Parsons would fill a major hole in their defense, especially after Von Miller’s departure. Parsons’ ability to pressure the quarterback could make Buffalo’s defense one of the league’s most feared units.

  • For Dallas, the addition of Cook solves their lingering running back issues since the Ezekiel Elliott era ended, providing much-needed support for Dak Prescott.

  • However, the price is steep: sending away a superstar defender for a running back and picks is risky, especially given the declining value of the RB position in today’s NFL.

    Jarrett Bailey (Sporting News): “Anything short of trading Josh Allen should be on the table for the Bills’ Super Bowl window. Parsons could change the entire complexion of Buffalo’s defense.”

    James Cook finished 2023 with over 1,100 rushing yards and 6 touchdowns but has yet to make a Pro Bowl. He is seeking $15 million per year, a price tag rarely paid to running backs in the current NFL landscape.
    Micah Parsons, meanwhile, is a two-time All-Pro with unmatched pass-rushing talent, but contract negotiations with the Cowboys have stalled, prompting him to request a trade.

    With only five weeks until the regular season, the Bills and Cowboys are both under pressure to make franchise-altering decisions. Should the deal go through, it could reshape the AFC and NFC playoff pictures and become one of the defining moves of the 2024 NFL offseason.

    Ravens Fan-Favourite CB Faces Family Tragedy After Week 5 Game as Military-Trained Skydiving Instructor Dies in Nashville
    Baltimore, MD – October 8, 2025Baltimore Ravens second-year cornerback Nate Wiggins is mourning a profound personal loss following the team’s Week 5 matchup, as his cousin, Justin “Spidey” Fuller — a respected military-trained skydiving instructor — died in a tragic tandem jump accident outside Nashville. Fuller, 35, was fatally injured after becoming separated from his harness mid-air during a jump organized by Go Skydive Nashville. His student survived after landing in a tree with the parachute deployed and was later rescued by firefighters. Police confirmed Fuller’s body was recovered in a wooded area off Ashland City Highway. The Nashville Fire Department called it “one of the most complex high-angle rescues in recent years,” commending personnel for their efforts. Known by the nickname “Spidey,” Fuller died after a tandem skydive went wrong on October 4, 2025, near Nashville, Tennessee. (Facebook/Justin Fuller Spidey) Beloved in the skydiving community, Spidey had completed more than 5,000 jumps and helped train U.S. service members in advanced aerial maneuvers. Friends described him as “fearless, focused and devoted to lifting others higher — in life and in the air.” Wiggins — whose mother is the younger sister of Fuller’s mother, grew up admiring his cousin’s discipline and sense of purpose. Family members say that influence helped shape his mental toughness and leadership on the field. A relative told local media, “Justin taught Nate that strength isn’t about being unbreakable — it’s about standing firm when life hits hardest. That’s exactly how Nate lives and plays today.” Wiggins, a former first-round pick from Clemson, has steadily earned the Ravens’ trust as a rotational cornerback in nickel/dime packages, praised for his speed, press technique, and ability to carry deep routes. Coaches describe him as “wise beyond his years,” calm under pressure, and disciplined at the catch point. Through the first five games of 2025, he has 12 solo tackles, 4 passes defensed, and 1 interception, reinforcing his value on the perimeter.  The Ravens organization has provided time and private support for Wiggins and his family, ensuring he can grieve without team-related obligations. Teammates have stood beside him, honoring both his resilience and his family’s tradition of service. The FAA is investigating the incident, while tributes to “Spidey” continue to pour in on social media from military colleagues, fellow skydivers, and fans across the country.“He taught others to fly — now he flies higher than all of us,” one tribute read. Wiggins kept his public comments brief, speaking softly before being embraced by teammates:“Spidey always told me not to fear the height — only the moment you forget to look down and pull someone else up with you. This week, I’m playing for him.”
