With Dak tagged, here comes the boatload of cash landing at Amari's doorstep. :gaah:

Well now we will find out if Cooper was just talking or means it when he says he wants to retire a Cowboy.

No one will fault him if a team comes in with a huge amount more than Cowboys. But if they are comparable......
Will he penny pinch?

I imagine it depends on which team offers a bunch of cash. If cowboys come close then I expect Amari to be back with Cowboys

Don't know if it's true, but just saw Cooper wants $20M per? Screw that. I love the guy as a person and think he is very good, but he just isn't near that good. I hope we don't give him that.

Draft a WR in the 2nd and move on

But doesn’t he want to play in a Super Bowl???
I guess we will see. After whoever he picks to play for.

Sometimes during FA they just follow the money.

After thinking about this I think you let Amari walk. He must want the 20 million per season or he would have already signed. I dont extend Dak this season or maybe trade him for picks? The way this looks maybe you trade up for Daks replacement? Think about it :the cowboys are not just a few players away. They were 8-8 with all these guys we wanted to keep.this offseason. If they wanted to keep Amari,Byron ,Quinn and extend Dak it would have happened by now! Like PDay said earlier: it seems like the Cowboys are headed for a rebuild.

Good point - they were the 9th oldest team in the league last year.

Wow. I heard the dead skins offered Amari a much bigger deal and he decided to stay in Dallas. Sadly Cobb got a big offer and is gone. I say sign Dez to a cheap deal to replace Cobb.

I don't think Dez would be good out of slot but maybe Cooper would. That's still probably not going to happen though. Probably better to draft.

no thank you.
Rather take a flyer on a WR in the draft than sign Dez.

Also rather just use Devin Smith & Austin over signing Dez for any reason.
Yeah, I would be stunned to see Dez back on the team. He burned some bridges, one of them with the QB

No way should we bring Dez back. Plenty of other options in the draft or free agency.

Well, a lot of money so Cooper better be on the field when the game is on the line, but I suspect once we see some of these contracts the $20M will be about right for a #1. My gut still says spending it on D would have been better, but maybe we still bring Quinn back and perhaps sign a couple FAs and start with a few less holes going into the draft. One thing about Cooper is he is a class act and great teammate and person so that does count for something. I do love the guy and am glad he is still a Cowboy and the fact that he took less to stay is a huge plus to me as well. Let's see if we are able to put a decent defense on the field.

Cobb - good for him. Another great guy, but you can't pay him to be a #3 after paying Cooper. I wish him luck and he is another business decision I'd have to let go, but another guy I would also have loved to have on the team next year and I will root for him

Dez??? I thought that was only bots on twitter calling for him to come back. I didn't think any actual fans would want him. If I thought he could still play I'd give him a small one year deal because I think he would "yes sir" his way through one season before becoming an issue. But, he just isn't any good any more and hasn't been for a few years.
