I'd feel a whole lot better with Rico and Dez

[Mookie]

Rico is a receiving threat, a natural athlete, an amazing weapon for the passing game and one of a kind TE talent. If he somehow gets cut, he will get picked up by another team and succeed elsewhere. Sort of like when the Minnesota Twins gave up on David Ortiz, then he got picked up by the Red Sox and the rest is history.

And also Dez would make our offense so damn amazing right now. My heart still aches from that roster move. Dez, Gallup, TWill, Cole and Rico. With this line, with Zeke, with Dak, and now with our amazing defense. What a waste!

You'd feel better if we had someone who we have.

Rico I love, but why isn't he starting? I don't understand why our writers are hinting his departure from the team.

All of our TEs are good but he has the potential to be another level.


Gallup’s potential is really a mystery to me. He’s at worst a above average player but his movement and abilities really jump out. He’s just so complete.

At this point in his career, Dez doesn’t bring anything Hurns doesn’t bring.

You're forgetting Hurns and Austin who I much rather have than Dez. Dak looks comfortable and looks to find the open guy instead of targeting a specific receiver or TE. Dez is talented and so if Witten but if they kept in Daks ear about targets than we are better off without them

 

[Irvin88_4life]

Did Rico get any targets and I missed it? In the 4th Quarter I was thinking they were going to keep him out of games to try to get him one more (last) year on the Practice Squad.

He dropped a short pass but came up with a couple of good catches. The best one he went up over a defenders back to steal the ball from him which would have resulted in a pick

Because he has a ton of flaws and is 4th on the depth chart

He's the best TE we have but of course, we are so hell bent on wanting Witten clones and expect them all to be the same guy. We wouldn't know how to use an athletic TE. See Marty B.

Yeah, quick trigger finger on my part. I had to leave with a few minutes left in the game but just looked at the box score to see 2 catches. My bad.

I'm changing my opinion on the TE's a bit after this game, I thought Jarwin would start and Swaim would be traded so they could keep Gathers as the 3rd TE. But tonight I'm thinking Jarwin isn't quite ready and Schultz is definitely not ready so they need Swaim as an OK, not great, starter at TE. That would leave Rico off the roster, hopefully he can make the PS again and improve his attitude and blocking.

[StarBoyz83]

If dallas only keeps 3 tes I dont see Rico making it.

 

[zerofill]

The problem Rico has, is he is on a run first team. He would never clear waivers now. A heavy pass oriented offense would snap him up now.

 

[chagus]

Rico is an enigma to us fans at this point.

 

[big dog cowboy]

And also Dez would make our offense so damn amazing right now.

He is suddenly going to start getting seperation now?

He is suddenly going to train to get those high throws like he USED to do?

He is suddenly going to stop being a distraction?

He is suddenly going to start running crisp routes?

There are several reasons he isn't signed now. And he isn't coming back to the Cowboys. Thank goodness.

 

[Kaiser]

The Browns saying "we are still going to look at our options" is the dating equivalent of Patton Oswalt saying "I just want to be friends".

 

[dwreck27]

Wish he could block better

 

[CATCH17]

He has big play ability and I don’t care what details he is lacking if he can make plays with the ball.

I hope you’re not suddenly a Tavon Austin believer.

that was rebounding esk
