Great points and facts @blueblood70 .

I personally like Cooper, but I don't agree with him getting paid $20+ million / season considering Dez was a better stats producing WR for us who never got paid what Cooper has for lesser stats.

They gave Dez a contract. He failed to produce, got cut, went to another team, got cut, left the league, and will never be good again. He didn't get a bad deal, he stopped being good in a dramatic fashion and no one in the league wanted him

More proof that stats mean very little; but I'm happy for him. He needs to catch 29 passes over the last five games to get to 100; so let's see if that happens.
I wouldn't discount stats to that degree - they actually do mean something, but the stats of individual players only tell a part of the overall story of a team. There has to be positive production from a number of players in a number of areas for a team to be successful. .

I get it, but Dez's career is really weird to me. Besides those 3 years he was bad. He had WR 3 and 4 stats. He had a slow transition into the nfl, and made a lot of mistakes, and then I guess injuries and physical skill declining after those big years.

You can say stats don't matter, td's matter. But those TD's didnt translate to wins. Dez doesn't have any superbowl wins or a bunch of playoff wins.

Amari being able to consistently beat corners, run a full route tree, and be consistant over his entire career makes him a better WR.

Tony's skill at throwing those TD's and being the best in the league at it, and dez ability to physically dominate at 1v1 in the end zone was fun to watch, and almost unstoppable

what playoff game did cooper go off in? big stat game winner this isnt the nfl vs dez this is dez vs cooper..weird or not most wrs dont have careers that were these 3 years dez put together and lets not start giving he qb all the credit..i agree Romos is better then Dak at elevating players and seeing more of the play before it happens..

if amari was consistently beating corners he would be scoring more..36 to 73 is hardly a freak weird accident lol

20mil dollar wrs should score more have much bigger plays then getting a lot of underneath YARDS..cooper good i like him but i was more impressed with dez

100% this

I love how when people talk about how Cooper is actually going to have a real career dez fanboys come in all butt hurt and say something like "oh he made all pro team and was a TD machine"

I find players like Dez, Murray, Bell, Adrian Foster.... ect extremely overrated. They'll have two or three madden-esque seasons and then fanish off the face of the Earth never to be seen again. I'd rather have a Frank Gore/Donald driver type player to be honest, especially if the player in question is somebody that you're trying to lock up for a significant amount of time

SInce you keep bringing up 20mil dollars. Look at what dez did for his money

Dez Bryant Contract
2015 5 year 70million 20million signing bonus, average 14 million yearly for 3 years, he earned 45million

Here is what you got for 45 million

2015....9-31....401 yards....3td's

2016....13-50....796 yards....8td's

2017....16-69....838yards....6td's

That is pitiful for 45 million
He held out for his contract
Had a bad attitude


I will take Amaris contract, Amaris production, and what he will do in the future

no ones butthurt facts are facts

AC wishes he had years like that and they are not flash in the pan some of dez years were cut dude to injury why he was close to 1k and dont make it..those Tds were not an accident..73 to 36 makes Amari look lie a Jag and thats Fact..if you are yard accumulator but have half the tds of élite players , you are a 1b not #1A .I like coop but he sometimes gets lost in games gets yards but you forget he played..lmao,,right hes better then dez, sure better at not scoring and being fly on the wall MOST GAMES....

you dont make top 5 ALL TIME DC WR RANK being a flash in the pan and his Tds rank #1 since 1960 , flashy in the pan is your way of personally not likening player and having narrative without facts. you realize how many great WRs we have had and the amount of them since 1960 and Dez is 5th al time in receptions and yards and first in tds ..that not Madden thats real life NFL football stats..

and BTW since when is being fan of player who was drafted and great while he was here a fanboy ie bad LMAO the issue is there are fan groups who hate on our own players and get on their knees for others..hate on their own team and wish to be another..horrible fan littered throughout this place..

its funny many didnt like TO either yet hes in the hof and hes was here only 3 seasons and made all time top 10 in DC history,,he was awesome far better then Cooper but hey hes knuckleheads call him flash in the an,

same fans say Jwitt was over rated and just accumulated yards over long career and wasn't special,,hmm id say this is a fan issue..but hey tak cooper in a pickup game ill roll with dez..

look in the mirror..

flash i the pan players would be crayton, beasly, austin, and lauerent

doesnt matter players get paid for what they did in the past and AC didnt do squat for the DC or really the raiders as well..you have zero facts Dez is top 5 all time for the Dallas Cowboys in yards and receptions and first in Rec tds at 73 that not flash in the pan that being one of our best ever, open your hate goggles..,,he earned the money like Zeke but hey another player fans like to hate on..

100mil for 6td year player is overpaid

I like AC but stating facts..you cant win you want to think you did but facts are facts top 5 all time and #1 all time ..all time is not madden like its NFL History you cant take away..

What do you think of julio jones career

10td's is his highest, 2 years with 8 td's, after that 6 is the highest


I dont buy it blue blood. You don't get paid for what you did in the past, you get paid for your projection of the future. That has basis in the past, but is not the sole factor.

Dez was a bust after his contract. It has to be near the top of the worst contracts the cowboys ever made

He has in some big games but has shown up in others. But i remain convinced we're a better team with him.
Of course we are better with him but would the money spent else where make us better without him. Ceedee is the real deal and I would expect a huge jump next yr

I don't think Ceedee and Gallup would be as good without Cooper. He is the real deal though. Ceedee and Cooper will be a good combo for 4 more years

also underperforming and is hurt a lot TO had 38 in 3 years here.. JJ should be scoring more and id take Megatron over JJ because Megatron had 4 years of double digit tds his best 16 like dez..

but against we are talking Dallas Cowboy WRs lets not bring in others..

dez vs ac ill take dez Prime short term punt and WR stats

maybe AC finishes stronger and maybe some of its Dak vs Romo

not true many payers get paid after big years especially their rookie deal and hopes for big things after but they really already earned the deal

lmao i dont know one player who didnt show PB and HOF potential under their rookie deals or their FA period and got paid, they all already did great things , got paid, and a lot never live up to those contracts..

it is what it is

Wow, Julio underperforming, look at his yards.


Roy WIlliams contract

1324 yards 13 tds


Dez Bryant

Earned 42 million

2035 yards 17 tds

Did dez earn that 10 million more than Roy?

It is what it is. And dez had 3 good years out or 8. Got a huge contract, got paid 42 million, had WR 3 and 4 numbers

I loved watching those 3 years, but he did not have a good career
