The Cowboys just got much better in the secondary on the same day they extended safety Donovan Wilson. Dallas traded one of their two compensatory fifth-round picks for five-time Pro Bowl cornerback Stephon Gilmore.

Gilmore’s contract only pushes through 2023 with a $9.9 million cap hit.

The 2019 Defensive Player of the Year is headed to the Cowboys for what might just be a rental year but it’s a massive upgrade. With the ascent of DaRon Bland and the continued excellence of Trevon Diggs, Dallas has a three-headed monster at cornerback. Jourdan Lewis is also expected to return from injury.
