Cobb and Cowboys close to deal

[iceberg]

In 2017 in one of those "declining" years he was 27th in the NFL in catches with 66. Dez Bryant had 69 catches that year.

so i take it cobb is paying you to "correct" everyone?

 

[Kaiser]

great.

so he then disappears when healthy. even better.

i'm not against signing cobb - don't get me wrong. i just won't have high expectations for him. would love to be proven wrong if we do sign him.

He averaged 75 catches a year in those five healthy, non-rookie seasons. Its hard to call that disappearing.

 

[SoupcanSam]

Hey............ are we closer now to signing him?

Cobb is just trying to process going from Rodgers to Dak.

He asked Jerry for a 10th shot of blue label before he signs to make the situation seem a little bit better.

But dont worry......its happening.....right after this last round....compliments of jerrah.

No, I correct dumb posts free of charge. I'm a giver.

AND WHAT ABOUT ME????

He's gone and good ridden.

I am thinking 3rd option, Hurns could be on his way out!

You can cut Hurns right up until the last day of camp without having his contract count against the cap. Keep him through training camp as insurance against one of the others getting injured.

If Cobb is signed it will most likely be Hurns or Austin that is cut. Then again you never know. They may keep all of them for depth in case of injury. Normally the Cowboys carry 6 receivers.

Cooper
Cobb (If Signed)
Gallup
Hurns
Austin
Brown

Depends on how much Cobb is going to cost. The will be no cap hit if we part ways with Hurns and we will recoup $5 plus Million of cap space.

Not exactly correct. As soon as he signs the option the Cowboys have to give him 1.25 mil as a signing bonus.

You can't say Cobb is a creation of playing next to Jordy Nelson without acknowleding Beasley benefited by Dez Bryant drawing constant double teams.

 

[Kaiser]

That isn't accurate. The cap hit for the 1.25 Million is half of his original signing bonus spread over two years. We take that hit no matter what.

Hurns does have a 1 Million roster bonus for 2019 but he would have to be active for all 16 games to get all of it. If he is cut before the season he gets none of it.

 

[Kaiser]

Where are you off to now? What's the next avenue you're going to run down in this?

You will get it if you read the thread.

 

[Stash]

You will get it if you read the thread.

I'm not bothering to try. It's an irrelevant diversion in a desperate attempt to win an argument.

And it failed.

 

[Kaiser]

I'm not bothering to try.

That's abundantly clear.

Beasley more productive over the past three years:

And likely more healthy too.

And if that's the case with a passer like Aaron Rodgers, what should you expect playing with a passer like Dak Prescott?

Was thinking the exact same thing. Passes coming from Rodgers and now from Prescott. Hope Cobb is a very patient man.

 

[Stash]

That's abundantly clear.

You missed your calling as an editor. Nobody cherry-picks things out of posts while ignoring everything else the way you do. It's akin to fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

[xwalker]

night john boy.

I wonder how many here get that reference...

 

[Stash]

Was thinking the exact same thing. Passes coming from Rodgers and now from Prescott. Hope Cobb is a very patient man.

And amazingly, some people expect Cobb's numbers to be better?

It's bizarre.

I wonder if Dak will miss Cobb when he is wide open too?
