When it comes to big names left on the market, there is none bigger than Bobby Wagner. The future Hall of Famer is a six-time first-team All-Pro who has racked up 2,000 tackles over 14 seasons. He also remains a starting-caliber off-ball linebacker.
Wagner, who is the reigning Walter Payton Man of the Year, started all 17 games for the Washington Commanders last season and finished with 162 tackles, 4.5 sacks, eight tackles for loss, and two interceptions.
There is no shortage of teams that could use a defensive leader of Wagner’s caliber, but the Dallas Cowboys might make the most sense. Dallas has taken an aggressive approach to rebuilding its defense this offseason—one that has included adding Miller—and head coach Brian Schottenheimer spent time with Wagner with the Seattle Seahawks.
“You’re looking at one of the biggest Bobby Wagner fans in the world,” Schottenheimer told Kay Adams of Up & Adams in March. “…I love that guy.”
