4. Demarcus Robinson, LA Rams

The LA Rams have been one of the more disappointing teams to watch this season, exiting Week 5 with a 1-4 record. If they also decide to become sellers ahead of the NFL trade deadline, veteran wideout Demarcus Robinson could become available for the Cowboys to target. 

For starters, Robinson is also on an affordable contract as his cap hit sits at $4 million for the season before he hits free agency in March. If the Cowboys want to keep avoiding paying big bucks to outside talent, the ex-Florida Gator certainly fits that bill. 

Secondly, Robinson has experience being a WR2/3 throughout his career and has done well in that role. He's produced 2,697 yards and 21 TDs on 231 catches across 135 games. Not only that, but he's averaging a career-high 37.8 receiving yards per game this season, putting him on pace to hit the 600-yard mark for the first time. 

Robinson also has a Super Bowl ring in his possession, which is the type of postseason experience that the Cowboys could use. 

Considering how he can likely be acquired for a late-round draft pick, the Cowboys should make a play for Robinson before another team moves in.
