Well he did have 70 to 90 catches with over 1K the past three years with Prescott.....but ok lol

yeah he was but this year he wasn’t
My point is that if he goes to a team with a good QB he can still put up those numbers so his value is pretty high to a good team

Patriots traded Brandon Cooks to the Rams in exchange for a first-rounder and 6th rounder in 2018. He only had 1000 yards and 7 TDs. I would think we could get at least a late 1st for Amari. But to be completely honest, for some reason I think the odd WR out might be CD Lamb. We could no doubt get a 1st + picks for him. And then we resign Gallup and either pay cut Amari or restructure.

At the time cooks wasn’t getting paid as if he was one of the greatest WRs who ever lived

Only guy that may be tradable and not on a rookie contract is Martin. No one is trading for our other overpriced “stars”.

Several teams would take Coop but they know we have to release him if he isn’t traded or doesn’t agree to a pay cut.
This team's "talent" is so overrated. Who on our #1 offense would you exchange for the Rams starter? Martin, and maybe Tyron. Maybe. That's it.

Schultze is tradeable with value. Jarwin is already due a large contract that is a negative on the market...

Probably an overreaction on my part, but I'd have cut Williams today. He was atrocious all season and was worse in Sunday's loss

I'll throw some plausible ones out there.

What about.

Anthony Brown a 7th rounder and a 2023 4th to the Lions for Jeff Okudah and there early 3rd rounder? Kelvin Joseph's time to shine

La'el Collins and a 5th rounder plus a Future 7th to the Jaguars for there 2nd rounder?
Terrence Steele gets the job

Jourdan Lewis and a 6th to the Texans for a 4th rounder? Opens a roster spot

Tristan Hill for a 2023 6th rounder?

Blake Jarwin for a 7th rounder and 2023 7th rounder?


All in all we save some cash and get some much needed picks to helps us some young guys to develop and take over and even contribute asap

Amari is a top 5 receiver in the right scheme. His route running and release is elite may be top 2 or 3. Tape doesn't lie. Someone would give a first for him.

La El Collins would be first on my list. OL was better with Steele in there, even though he's not as good a player. Teams will pay well for a starting OT.

Cooper makes sense, but that means we gotta resign Gallup and get another WR, because Ceedee would be our only WR and that is not his best role. He needs to be in the slot.

I'd like to keep Brown, personally. But it does make sense to trade him, with Joseph ready to play.

Outside of that, we really need to hang on to a lot of players. We're losing like 5 starters in FA.

Some of the following players have some degree of trade-ability in terms of their talent alone:

1. Dak. (His cap number is prohibitive)
2. Martin
3. Tyron Smith
4. CeeDee
5. Cooper
6. Parsons
7. Pollard
8. Tank (his cap number may make him un-tradeable to the team acquiring him)
9. Gallimore
10. Odiggie
11. Diggs
12. Anger


There may be a few others but that’s who comes to mind off the top of my head. Dak’s contract really makes it hard to trade him but he has value otherwise.

I would say that ANY player on this list should be evaluated and shopped to see what the market is for that player.

Tank, Tyron and possibly Pollard should be viewed as “salvage value” trades for the team. Get something out of them while you can and invest that “capital” back into the team.

Martin, Diggs, Cooper, and Parsons fall into a different class. In my opinion Diggs’ stock will never be higher. His INTs dropped into oblivion later in the year. If I could get a first round pick out of Diggs (and something else as a bonus —starting level player or a premium pick) he would be GONE, and I would draft his replacement.

Cooper is a guy who is replaceable and his cap percentage really makes the team top-heavy as to the cap. If I could get a first round pick out of him I would ship him out. A second might do it to a bad team picking in the top 5.

Martin is still a very good player, but if I get a first and a third out of him, he’s gone too. His best days are behind him.

Parsons is a guy you really DONT want to let go. But you shop him because you might get a Herschel Walker sort of trade for him. He’s at a high impact position. Luke Keuchly etc all played lights out for a while and then they fell off the face of the earth due to injuries. You shop a guy like that and see if someone will overpay to “get the next LT”.

Most players on that list, would leave Dallas and have stellar careers elsewhere.

You don’t get better trading good young talent and praying you can draft another

In the right scheme? How can you say that when he’s never been in that scheme? The route running thing is such baloney. It doesn’t matter how clean his routes are when he’s catching 5 balls for 35 yards in crucial games. Dez was not a great route runner, Irvin was not a tremendous route runner, Ceedee isn’t either. Yet all 3 of those guys can play as well or better than Amari on his best day.

What Amari does in practice or when he’s blanketed by a DB doesn’t mean squat. He produces like a number 2 WR, that’s not worth 20m$ a year nor a 1st round pick.
