Please….at least those guys were drafted. None of them had seasons like Miles Austin or Laurent Robinson.
Beasely was drafted?

Interesting. Thank you for proving you are just a bitter Romo fan.

Also in Robinsons best year he was targeted 80 times and only caught 54 of those passes. If you give any of those "other guys" 80 targets. I would bet money they match his production. He was a product of volume. Not some messiah quarterback.

Beasely had 98 targets in 2016 and caught 75 of them for almost the same yardage. And hes almost a foot shorter than Robinson lol.

Cobb had 80 plus targets for again. Close to the same yardage total and missed a game.

Your argument is baseless.

Now at least we understand why you hate Dak.

And please. Dont make me show you the RZ targets vs the others. lol.

La La Robinson was clearly a JAG who had production due to volume and necessity.

Plus I'm pretty sure he and Jerrah no longer liked Coop so that's why Coop will be catching passes from Jacoby Brissett this season. Let's see how that works out for him.
There was a definite chemistry issue going on there, from both sides.
Time to move on from our Coop glory days.

Look at the numbers of all of the players Dak has thrown to with the same volume. All of the stats are almost identical except for TDs lol. And no offense but if I see Robinson at 6 foot 1 vs Cole at 5 foot 6 in the Redzone. Whos getting the target.

Its amazing that these people make these arguments.

I mean the guy is obviously still bitter Romo went out the way he did. But to not even know Cole Beasely was an UDFA shows your agenda to the entire board. Not to mention he said "at least those guys were drafted"

Laurent Robinson was also. You guessed it. Drafted. With a 3rd round pick no less lol.

The whole argument is laughable.

Not taking sides, but just to be clear: If you're throwing the ball to one of them, Beasley in the end zone is probably wide open. Robinson is better covered, but jumps higher.

I can’t wait for the season. Prescott without a superstar at wide receiver. this is where he gets to really prove himself , make it or break it , No excuses. Can you put the team on your shoulders. I think we’ll have a winning season. Then it’ll be up to the defense to see how Far we can go from there.
he is a second tier QB. almost all but a few agree to that. so you want to see him be elite. you won't.

so what's the point then? are you looking for an excuse to knock him for not being elite? I don't get it

Robinson was definitely not better covered when he was in Dallas. Dez, Austin, and Witten were probably covered.

Just lets be honest here lol

I'm saying if you're throwing to them in the end zone, Beasley is more open than Robinson. He's just too small to throw to when he's covered, and much quicker than Robinson. I'm certainly not saying Robinson is drawing the best DBs.

A top ten'ish QB shouldn't need 4 All Pro WR's. Certainly a group starting with Lamb who was the 17th pick should be sufficient.
I want the QB to make them better. Don't want to hear any excuses that there aren't weapons.

Dak has lots of nice young receivers on this team to choose from, he is getting paid franchise money to find a few that he likes.
I am sure to get bashed for this comment, but thats just reality in the NFL.
Its not like all of Daks toys have been taken away, he has a few available.

Exactly, and, if we need another WR, I'm sure it can be arranged, but Dak seems to like these WRs.

LOL.

How quickly people forget that Beasely (UDFA) had his best season in Dallas with Dak.

Beasley was 5 seasons into his career at that point. He was also targeted more that year, it wasn't really all that much better than what he did in 2015.

So, Dak sucks? Lol! Why are you even here?

Because I want to be and I don't need to justify why I'm commenting on a message board. You can, however, ignore - that's an option, and one you are incapable of doing.

I'm not here to fanboy about your favorite player. Seethe and then cope.
