Would you sign Baker Mayfield as Dak's backup

[Hawkeye0202]

Coop has likely priced himself out of our price range. My first thought was Jerry would never sign a backup to push Dak. But when you consider the out on Dak's deal after next season or if he's looking for a nice raise if we make a deep playoff run. The thought is that crazy. We know Parsons gonna break the bank, adds Diggs and if you give Dak a raise, that's probably $350-400M on three players. Thoughts?

He's too much competitiion for Dak.

Wait you think Cooper is going to get more than Baker?!

If Baker is cut and would sign for backup money—yes I would sign him in a heartbeat. MM might turn his career around.

No , no why? The guy is awful. Next year if they need someone, then grab a guy like Mariota or whoever they would be better.

Cooper Rush performed well because he has been in this offense for such a long time. He has value to us but likely not so much elsewhere.

I’d rather take my chances by drafting a rookie than going with Baker. We’ve seen his peak and it ain’t good. Might as well stay with Rush.

Mayfield can’t play. I watched 3 of their games this season. The guy sucks.

 

[Havic]

I'd rather have Josh Rosen.....yea....I said it.

 

[doomsday9084]

He is really bad and reportedly, not a good team guy. I wouldn't be surprised if he is out of the NFL next year.

My goodness.......lol

 

[diamonddelts]

Horrible player. Terrible question.

 

[Tabascocat]

Naw, his days are numbered left in the NFL.

 

[Whirlwin]

Why where is Cooper Rush going. Everybody knows he’s just a back up. He’s definitely not Going to start for anybody

 

[Praxit]

....does that mean no more Baker commercials? ....

He may not have a choice. His days as a starter are over......until/unless he can reestablish himself.

 

[RomoIsGod]

Just sign Johnny Manziel instead

Cooper Rush succeeded primarily because he's been in the Cowboys system for a long time. If he goes to another team, he won't have the same level of success.
