Amari Cooper being traded to Dallas

[DJ]

yep, he hit a few big plays his first couple of years but he's basically just a possession receiver

This. He's not a major deep threat.

 

[PhillyGreen]

McClay was also the voice who said Dez talent is no longer worth his contract.

To be fair everyone who watched football could see that Dez was no longer worth his contract.

 

[jarntt]

Heavily skewed by his rookie season when he averaged almost 15ypc.









It's dropped since his rookie year.

You can try to sell it anyway you want. It's currently 14.1 and last year it was 14.2. Just say oops, I messed up and move on.

I don't think that is a very telling stat anyway. YPC is driven as much by your role in the offense as it is an indicator of your big play ability

 

[Manster7588]

There is nothing in that article that states who was behind this particular deal. And if it leaves out Garrett when discussing Cowboy moves of the last few years he hasn't spoken to anyone around the Cowboys at all.

McClay was part of the Dez decision, not the initiator. They asked him what he thought.

Never said McClay was the instigator on Dez being released, but in the discussions his take was Dez isn't worth the contract. Is isn't just the college scout, he is the team scout for all players and every decision player wise he's in on.

Take away his biggest plays.....87, 68, 64 and he averages 13.4ypc. He's basically a possession WR, not a big play guy.

well if he has speed he can still stretch the defense. Which will still help our bread & butter. Running game.

That's the case with EVERY WR. Are you really arguing whether 14.1 vs 13.4 or 12.7 makes him a deep threat vs a possession guy? He's a possession guy regardless.

[VikingFan2k2]

What is he doing here? That's lying just to lie. What is the point?

 

[Montalban]

I wouldn't bet against it. In Dallas, the defenses he faces are still gonna be geared up with 8 men in the box to stop Zeke. They also have Beasley, who is open every time he isn't double teamed. All he will have to do is defeat man coverage. That's it. Their problem is, none of their other receivers can. This team won 13 games a couple of years ago with Dak at QB and a defense that wasn't anywhere near what it is now. Were Dez and an old Jason Witten that good? He might make a huge difference. Plus, they were going to have to go WR in the 1st round next season...right now, there aren't any WR's projected to go in the top 20 in most mocks. High price, but if he returns to his form of a couple of years ago, it will be worth it

Couldn't find the "Useful" emoticon. But this is useful.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

I wish it had come at less cost.

But I think this helps.

I hope Rico Suave I mean Gathers comes through because they sorely need a tight end.

You’re a dumbass that lives in a desert. Your opinion is wrong

Me and all the rest of this people in this country. Texas or Cali... thats a tough one. Please dude.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

It’s more expensive in California because more people want to live there.! Texas isn’t known to be a beautiful state.

More people are moving out of Cali cause of how screwed up the system is. It has some beautiful areas but it's becoming non livable unless you're a millionaire. On that note, even millionaires are moving out.

THe reason they are moving out is because they can flip their average, middle class house into mansions in other parts of the country. Its simple supply and demand. The house prices are sky high because everyone wants to live there. But yes... it is very very expensive. A million buck in LA or the Bay area buys you just a regular old home. Crazy. If I could afford it I'd move out of this dust bowl and move there in a nano second. Its diverse and has tons of beautiful areas. Lake Tahoe (Skiing), Malibu (Beach), San Fran and its fantastic diversity and acceptance. Texas... no thanks.

Don't remember inviting you, so...you're welcome?

I already live in the second most corrupt state in the country, no way in hell i'd move to the most corrupt state in the country. Now saying that, I'd go visit on vaca.

Derp

More people move to Texas FROM California than Texans moving to CA. That place is a dump. Gross

Texas has more diversity and a classier population.

More diversity... funny.

 

[broncosmitty]

Anybody have a worse trade in the last three four years?


Spitball.

There has to be a couple that are/were comparably dumb.

 

[handicappers]
