Has Amari Cooper played his last game under the Dallas Cowboys’ star?

Tooter_Magee · Jan 27, 2020

Pretty informative. Seems like Cooper's being honest about his thought process

https://www.al.com/sports/2020/01/h...-last-game-under-the-dallas-cowboys-star.html

“I don’t think it’s all about money,” Cooper said about his offseason options. "... If you’re a highly touted free agent, you’re going to get paid a lot of money no matter where you go. Is it worth it to go somewhere that you probably don’t want to go as far as -- you might be a guy like me who’s from South Florida who’s never played a game in the snow?"

"Is it worth a million dollars more a year or two million dollars more a year, especially if you're taking care of your money investment-wise? Is it worth that to be in an environment that you don't want to be in? Or would you like to stay somewhere in the South? It's not all about money."

Smart guy: It is not the content, but the context of life that matters the most. You are not going to take this money with you when you leave this life form, might as well enjoy the journey.

NFCE opponents could potentially be 3 divisional games in bad weather/snow in and of itself. Not a good reveal from someone the team will count on in the elements.

That's a reason not to sign him? lol

This is stupid. Stephen and Co will franchise or sign him longterm. We gave a 1st rounder for him and he played as such. He’ll be a Cowboy.

I think he's smart enough to realize that he will have to play an occasional game in bad weather. What he's saying is that he isn't signing with GB, Buffalo, NY, NE, or anywhere else that has the chance to play 6-8 games a year in cold weather.

That he would prefer to play as few games as possible in frozen conditions? I think that applies to most people. If he's willing to give a price break to play where he prefers to play, I'm all for it.

I agree with him.

If you make $50,000 per year doing what you like where you like, would you jump at a chance to make $55,000 in a place you don't like with a company you know little about? Cooper already has enough money to live well. I doubt he is going to jump at $20M to go to the Bengals when he could make $18M with the Cowboys. Now Miami might be a different story. I personally would rather make $18M in Dallas than $20M in Miami. But, that is me.

Throw in games against NFC North or AFC East or AFC North or AFC West and you have yourself a possibility of 5 or more games in cold weather.
