Our receiving core? Do they scare anybody?

With TWill leaving possibly and Brice Butler almost assuredly..

Examining Dez and Beasley and Witten and their success on the field in 2017..

What do we need to do?

Who do we keep and how do we improve?

We just overhauled the secondary and added Taco on the DL.

And I know Zeke is a factor in the passing game..

but he's out of the conversation..for now.

To me we have no speed at the position and declining catches, drops and holding penalties by the WRs and TEs was definately up.

How do we clean this up?

Do the Cowboys even see this as a problem?

I have heard nothing on this issue at all.

What do you guys see.?

The answer is Sanjay Lal. Problem solved.

naw we just need speedy guys who can run uncoverable 10 yard routes.

The QB doesn't scare anybody, defenses know they only have to worry about Zeke because Dak is so inconsistent even if the WRs are open.

northerncowboynation · Jan 18, 2018

Apparently I'm not the only fan they scare

northerncowboynation · Jan 18, 2018

What do we need? A 4.5-4.6 40 time guy who runs precise routes, gets open in that 15 yard area and catches with his hands. Adam Thielien or Cooper Kupp for example.

they would be better running a more effective offense than the 90's so favored by garrett. wr's are part of the problem. the offensive game plan is the larger part of their failure.

Twill just signed a new deal so he isn't going anywhere.

I know for one nobody is scared of getting beat deep. Nobody. Until the scheme changes all those questions will be left unanswered. But this offense needs a new TE and some speed! Outside of Zeke it's slow as molasses.

Yep, we need some YAC as well!

For sure, we were lower third in the league in RAC. Our WR's made plays with the ball in their hands in one game that I remember.

Yeah, that was like Twills one big game this year lol.

there are ZERO people that catch or throw the ball for the Dallas Cowboys that scare any defenders from opposing teams...run the ball 100% of the time

They scare no one and nothing will change other then probably Butler.

One of these is good esp if they are TE sized. We need a faster Williams who catches better and Butler to deliver. Dez should be your possession WR but he's leagues away from being a Michael Irvin type.

Captain-Crash · Jan 19, 2018

start running Dak if he can't find someone open in the 5-7 yard passing lanes. Heck that is as far as he's accurate, it he gets hurt oh well. next guy up...

They've been spying him waiting on that rollout.

naw it's not the routes, it the qb with the "glitch". tell us how it's not curable and how you seen it before.

If we combined the best traits of each of our WR's we might have a good #1. Butler is done. His comments the past week won't help his cause either.

I think Bease made the hair catch then took the rest of the year off or maybe he cut his goldie locks off

Maybe. He deserves more snaps if he stays.
