Going out and trading for a QB will be costly in terms of draft picks and will subsequently hurt their chances of addressing their real gaps.

This season is likely lost regardless of who they bring in at QB. The Cowboys were looking to be more competitive next year and the year afterwards as they likely would have more cap space so maybe it’s best to go out and be proactive to make the team better for those years instead of trying to put bandaids on an arterial bleed.
According to ESPN Prescott will be out for 6-8 weeks. Looking at the state of the Cowboys offense last night I tend to agree that the Cowboys may be best served taking their lumps and retooling in the offseason. It seems like the plan was always just to ride this season with McCarthy and save for winning a Super Bowl he was always going to be fired and replaced with Payton. Probably best for Payton to have some high draft picks and the ability to make a lot of roster changes to his liking.
