Why is ironic, because soon Cooper will be the reason you’ll need to rely on rookie contracts to complete your roster.

"The Cowboys spend their first pick on Amari Cooper for a 1 year, 15mil contract."

What's he gonna be doing? Is he hanging in the war room and every time someone mentions a WR going "nup, nup, nup, you don't need that" and doing the Jedi mind trick on them?

Anyone that can't sit and watch Amari torch the Eagles simply has no pulse...it's about as wonderful as you can get and I have SB standards...Amari has destroyed the NFC East so far. He is worth 4 Gd First rounders if that continues....

GL to them paying Watkins and Hill as #1 receivers.
Interesting play for a team that lacked defense to lose Houston and possibly Ford but retain Watkins and extend Hill.
Watkins this year counts 19mil against the cap.
If cut pre June 1st, his dead cap is 22mil. lol

And if we didn’t have Cooper WR would be yet another hole in the roster we would need to fill with a rookie (or a lesser free agent)

I'd like to improve the DL so it is less likely to get steamrolled in playoff games.

1st round pick. DK Metcalf looks sick

I think he helps solidify a apparent whole we had. Look how much better we got after he arrived. We needed that threat at WR. Gallup should take a huge step forward this year. He took a step last year because of who was on the other side of him. If we sign Coop long term then we will have 2 real good WR on the outsides. Cooper is a immediate impact player. Likely better than any WR you could get on the 1st round of the draft.

So long as you ask him to run nothing but 9 routes. His lack of agility will make him useless on just about anything else.

Guess who else ran poorly in their 3 cone and shuttle drills? Anquan Boldin has worse times that DK. Calvin and Andre outright refused to run them, but participated in all other combine activities. Larry’s 3-cone was bad as well, and Dez had virtually similar numbers to DK. Big receivers with muscular, huge frames almost always run that poorly. Even with his speed. Even with their production. It seems to be a common drawback being so big.
But if you don’t like DI, then Hakeem Butler with one of the 2’s you trade your 1 for. But it’ll be him AND whoever you can sign with the 16-19m$ a year you’ll have to give Amari. That might be 2-3 quality starters. There are pros and cons to every decision.

Funny how it only happened in the playoffs. Well in the indy game also but I still blame coaching. Adding talent means nothing if the gameplan blows.
