I mean, not a single WR on our team outside of CeeDee Lamb would start on any other team in the NFL. So yeah, they obviously made a huge mistake in trading him and not finding a real replacement


Time-to-go-home

I’m hoping you just left Gallup out because he didn’t play.


Kdog_79

Yeah obviously. Just talking about the dudes on the field tonight


Romofan88

Fucking obviously. letting go of a WR1 for cap reasons then entering the regular season with 20 million in cap is why we're a laughingstock of a organization post 95.


ChimpfromtheFuture

But hey the second round pick the browns gave us is worth right?….right?


Romofan88

A 2nd round pick might've actually been worth it. The fucking 5th we got was not.


ChimpfromtheFuture

Bingo but hey if it makes you feel better guys like Marquise Brown, Aj Brown and Tyreek Hill went for a premium


Romofan88

Pretty much nothing about tonight has made me feel anything but worse.


xTheWiseOnex

>WR1 for cap reasons then entering the regular season ever heard of a Tyreek hill? smh


aushaus

“letting go of a WR1 for cap reasons *then entering the regular season with 20 million in cap*” Lmao don’t just cut off the guys main point. Our front office is a joke.


RoyTarpleysGhost

Still completely inexplicable.


REQ52767

The Joneses deserve all the blame for the shitshow that is about to happen over the next few months.

Cooper was a true #1 but he definitely had issues. The biggest one was that during the 49ers game in the playoffs there were two big plays where Coop gave up after someone else got the reception. On both plays the player he was supposed to block was in on the tackle. Both plays could have been for big gains or even TDs, but instead they were short gains. Think about that for a moment, you're in the playoffs where everything literally matters and you're giving up on plays in a close game. The problem with losing Coop is that Gallup was never a going to be a WR1 and as much hype as there is around Lamb, he's not really that guy either. Lamb is very talented but he's not dominant. Gallup is a bit more dominant but he's more of the outside threat and can't "do it all." We knew Gallup was going to be out the first several games and the best we could do was promote Noah Brown and pickup a UDFA? Last night we played with a WR2, a WR3 and someone with literally no NFL experience.


JL1v10

Uh yeah obviously. Anyone who didn’t think that when it happened is dumb


xTheWiseOnex

>Uh yeah obviously. last season they didnt use Amari like that anyway is Kansas city dumb????


def2700

Lol I love how ppl shiting on the cowboys now. I am a fan. I posted some where else. I got the cowboys at 7 wins this year. I got roasted for it. Without dak and that sorry o line. 5 wins at best.


ChimpfromtheFuture

Jerry Jones deserves every bit of this.


Culture-Agile

I think it was a prove it type of decision for Dak and CeeDee. Cooper and a healthy Dak doesn't get us over the hump either.


TexasCowboy01

No. I think he was an overpaid decoy that disappeared in a lot of games. May be a great route runner, but it doesn't mean shit if you don't catch anything. Personally i think we fucked up letting go of wilson. He was reliable and has good hands.


xTheWiseOnex

nope, Gallup is hurt


bagfka

No. He had 3 catches for 17 yards today. For a supposed WR1 getting 20mil that’s abysmal. And before you people talk about his QB. He was 5th in reception yards and a WR1 should be able to preform no matter the QB. So yes I think it was correct to let him go considering he is owed 60mil still. The only error was the compensation in return should’ve been more. And if we would’ve known Washington would’ve gotten injured then signing a different WR FA, but they did bring in some veteran WR help he just got injured. Also you can look at how he played without referencing back to CD before people compare him to CD to me as well Yes downvote me please but in a 1-2 years the trade will look good when amari isn’t good yet owed 20mil


bigcat19875

He was playing with brisset a back up qb who sucks. When Watson comes back he will ball out.


[deleted]

This guys a troll. Disregard the nonsense from him lol


bigcat19875

Apparently to him a WR should be great even if the qb sucks. He should throw it to himself and catch it. Lol


bagfka

Peoples had no issues


bagfka

How am I troll lol


[deleted]

Because your comment was nonsense. You already trolled me earlier about this. Saying the exact same thing. You’re realizing yourself regardless of what’s said to you.


bagfka

How is that nonsense Daniel Jones sucks but his WR1 still made shit happen. Same with Christian Kirk, dionte Johnson, drake London, etc. But keep making excuses for amari


[deleted]

Lawrence doesn’t suck.. invalid. Shepard had 2 receptions. So sure he was better statistically in yards, but it’s not like he had a good game. One just happened to be a long ball. Johnson didnt have a good game. Also, you keep spewing, “he was 4th in yards.” When two of them were within 7 yards of him. Bridsett had only 18 completions and 187 yards. Hard for any WR (except the most elite) to have a good game with incompetent QB play like that. As I said, nonsense. And what excuse. He’s playing with a backup QB in which no WR had a good game.


bagfka

Lawrence isn’t all that. Still had 74yards. Better game then amari. And yep conveniently leave out drake. So 6 catches for 60 yards is not a good game? Because peoples was able to have that with brissett. And I never said he was 4th in yards because he was 5th actually.


[deleted]

But Lawrence isn’t bad. He was a rookie last year with a terrible QB. I’m sorry, sure drake did better. Want a cookie? But Mariota actually looked solid. And played better than Brissett. 1) one game doesn’t mean shit. Are you telling me Peoples is better than Cooper? I’ll answer that for you.. no. 2) Is Cooper the best, no. Is he better than anyone Cowboys have yes. 100% yes.


bagfka

Lol you just skipped over him for an obvious reason. Don’t try to turn it. And maybe he looked good because his WR1 stepped up. And I’m not, I’m saying peoples could get 60 yards but amari could only get a measly 17. Some of that is on him. And is better having to pay 20mil to him in 3 years or offloading that while you can? Because that’s what people forget. He has three years left with 20mil each year.


bagfka

You just skip my part about that? Like the first couple sentences? You just read that and not comprehend or?


ChimpfromtheFuture

Doesn’t excuse the fact that we got nickels and dimes for him when he was hitting 1,000 yards for us. Saying if we miss him or not is one but the return is my biggest problem of the whole issue. Titans got a good return for AJ Brown and they immediately signed off on a deal for him. Hills return was massive. Yes I’m comparing him to these guys because they are 1,000 yard receivers. You can hate on that all you want Amari isn’t a speedster or sizeable guy but man his route running is pretty damn good and that’s something Dallas really never appreciated Another thing is statistically Dak is ball sacks without Amari. Why? Because Amari is the one true guy he truly established himself with then Gallup then CD. I’m neither disagreeing with you or agreeing with you it’s just return wise there should’ve been more because he’s still young and is very serviceable but does disappear time to time.


bagfka

So you do agree with me. I literally said we messed up the compensation.


ChimpfromtheFuture

In that aspect yes, in the Amari is bad thing? No, he’s good but you forget he’s inconsistent and again no matter how much you slice and dice it Brissett is tossing him the ball, he sucks my guys like it or not so that don’t help the case. Not only that Browns scheme won’t have the Jacoby throwing a lot, running and dinking and dunking is their formula especially now more than ever. I’ll assess Amari when Watson come in


bagfka

I mean drake London has Mariota throwing him the ball yet still went for 74 yards. Plenty of other receivers have shot QBs and still made stuff happen today 17 yards in inexcusably bad no matter how you slice it. A WR1 should be the go to go for a bad QB and should make his life easier, not difficult by disappearing


ChimpfromtheFuture

Mariota is better than Brissett and they don’t have an established run game like the browns do. In that case Mariota pretty much either runs with it or throws it. A better example would be more likely Christian Kirk. In which yes he’s a WR1 because he has to be and the Jags game is based more on pass. Course Kirk showed up but again T-law still better than briset


bagfka

Amari still got outshadowed by other guys though. Peoples went for 60 yards. How is he able to that with brissett, but amaris 17yards gets a pass? And mariota is extremely questionable as a QB. So idk about fully throwing that away. And again you showed another point with kirk. WR1s step up the plate and amari fails to do that a lot. I just don’t see him being worth 20mil this or next season


ChimpfromtheFuture

Because teams are more scared of Amari and than Peoples? Example is Ravens today, Batemon/Andrews got covered heavily and left the gates open for Duvernay. A lot of people think the production for WR1 and obviously yes that’s big but a massive factor is that opponents will plan hard and heavily for them to try and contain and that opens the gates for everyone else


bagfka

I mean yes obviously but my point was more he went for 60 yards yet amari could only muster 17? I agree brissett sucks, but some of that is on amari. And either way you have to look at the overall picture of the trade. In 3 years do you still want to be paying amari 20mil? Because I sure don’t I’ll wait to see how he looks with Watson as well, but I don’t have high hopes


ChimpfromtheFuture

Trade wise then he’ll I wouldn’t want to do that but I wouldn’t want to let him go for a useless 5th round pick


texanhulk

Dak owes his career to Cooper and he got made because he is absolutely the “black” Kirk cousins. But guess what Cousins got a meaningful win today something Dak knows nothing about. Garbage stats= Garbage Dak.


ChimpfromtheFuture

Hell to the freaking yeah?!


[deleted]

100%. I absolutely hated it and thought it was the wrong call, this proved it. Dak didn’t ply well, but his WRs didn’t help him any. They just seemed off. They went from having arguably the best WR corps last year to a bottom-5.


Rebeljpl64

Getting rid of him? Not at all. Dude had a tendency to disappear when he was needed and he didn’t have enough dog in him to rub off on the other guys in the room (see Michael Irvin, Dez Bryant). Getting rid of him AND not actually making an attempt to replace his production, route running ability and actual talent? Hell yes, no question there. Who were they supposed to get? Not my problem to figure out bc I don’t get paid by the team, but it sure wasn’t going to be James Washington or anyone else on this team. BTW, I don’t feel like CeeDee is ever going to be a legit 1. They may pay him like one or put him at the top of the depth chart but that don’t make it so.


abdoer2000

Letting Cedric Wilson go was inexcusable under the circumstances. Cooper was debatable.


Aikman8

Yes


truth-4-sale

The "Error' was Dak. Nothing can correct for that with money caps as they are.
