So, we keep the disgruntled Hurns over Butler.
We keep Thompson(and potentially lose the 4th round comp pick) over Butler.

Butler isn't good, but I don't see why we cut him before those two.
Hurns has a worse catch % than Dez and has talked to reporters twice about the lack of targets.
Thompson is a JAG receiver and after giving away a 1st for Cooper, an extra 4th would be nice, especially when Thompson isn't in any plans after 2019. I hope.

Someone please tell me this is a joke or we are living in the twilight zone.
Welcome to the Dallas Browns

The FO doesn't know what they're doing.

 

[Brooksey]

They must be panicking it was supposed to be Thompson.

 

[RodeoJake]

It's gonna be hard for Amari to replace that production

Thompson has only been in the league year longer than butler and they have pretty close to the same stats.

Nope.

The answer is Dez and it's always been Dez.

We got a worse WR in Cooper and it cost us a first round pick. They are morons.

Yup. Both are replaceable. My only knock on Thompson is that report that we can regain a 4th round comp pick if he's cut before week 10.

We seemed to have thought about using Butler again, hence his re-signing, but cut him before two other guys who have gone out there and have not impressed. Especially when one is going public with his pouts. Not exactly a team building decision on his part.

They would have gotten a 4th round comp pick back for releasing Thompson though.

Maybe he couldn't pick up the new playbook...LOL. The signing surprised me, he was outplayed in Arizona by a rookie.

is that a 100% certainty?

 

[CWR]

Never should've brought him back anyways. We are just guessing lol

 

[Carson]

Sounds like a Dallas move.

Bring back Butler to mask a problem, give him 0 PT, cut him.

Would’ve cut Thompson and his 22 snaps and got back a 4th

first off or should I say 100th post about Amari you realize His TEAMs leading receiver is the TE cooks at 400 yards this season..Amari has had 2 100 yard Rec games this year, 2 1000 receiving seasons, hes only 24, sure a first was reach but lets get over it hes here, just some bad ones and can we equate the lack of production to just HIM or his Team? im betting when Mack was let go some vets on that team just start trying very hard.. remember Moss in OAK seem to be playing half speed they said his career was over he wasn't trying, then he gets to NE and had some of his best years set records..Kurt Warner with the Giants horrible goes to Cardinals and has a career resurgence.. sometimes a team change can help..he obviously was hurt one game with a concussion recently..

They could still bring in Dez and release Thompson so there is that possibility....

Just what I've heard, can't say for certain though.
