Can we learn from the Packers and Chiefs?

[Coogiguy03]

Both teams just had to let go of their mega star wide receiver. With that said, the amount of money they wanted, the teams allowed the players to be traded, instead of giving out that big paycheck.

It saddens me to think what would Dallas do in this situation. I think at times Jerry can be a bit too loyal to his players, and it's not thinking with his brain for the future.

Sounds kind of backwards to say, at this time we're mad that he's not spending money, but in this sense these players want to set the market or come close. Sometimes you just have to say no, or El Paso!! If not your fan base in a few years will possibly complain that we overpaid for a player!! Please give your thoughts...

We can, but I doubt we will.

Lets see how they actually fare without Adams and Hill first

Chiefs and Packers learned from the Cowboys.

Dallas has overpaid for its share of players. They can’t overpay for them all, though. I like that they are not overpaying free agents and I like that they decided not to overpay for Amari Cooper. At this point, Zeke is probably their biggest current overpay (arguments can be made by the anti-Dak crowd). Sometimes you just have to overpay and hope.

Did people around here already forget about Amari Cooper?

You don't win extra points for staying under the salary cap. Aggressive teams have been winning the superbowls lately, not penny pinching teams. if you're not replacing that talent that you lost, what's the point of all of this 'cap management'?

 

[cowboyec]

no.
screw'm both.
screw'm.
screw'm all.

So it is ok for KC and GB to trade away their top WR’s. Matter of fact they lost just about all of their WR”s.
But Dallas loses one WR that has not lived up to his contract, and sign one that is decent in his place.
Yet Dallas gets ridiculed about it.

Wow, just Wow.

That's right, Cooper.

You know what I learned from the Packers and Chiefs? I guarantee you neither are in the 2022 Super Bowl. I'm not saying trading away their WRs is the reason. Just part of the reason. It will be two other teams. So, I'm not for emulating them. Or learning anything from them.

I’m not gonna argue this isn’t a weak thread, but…

The compensation isn’t even comparable and Cooper “not living up to his contract” has as much if not more to do with the QB and OC than Cooper. The guy was given a paltry amount of targets. And because he didn’t run his mouth non-stop with little to no production like Cowboys fan love, he had a “bad attitude.”

I thought he had a great attitude, so don’t include me in that part.

The difference is they both got a really nice return on their trades while we got squat(5th rounder.)Basically it was just a salary dump.

 

[JPM]

Did people around here already forget about Amari Cooper?

Heck no, can’t wait to spend that sweet, sweet 5th round pick.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

The difference is they traded their WR1 for multiple 1st round picks. We gave ours away for nothing.

Yes on how not to get taken to the woodshed on trades.

I BET YOU WON'T EVEN NOTICE THEY'RE GONE BECAUSE OF THE QB THAT'S STILL THERE!

They're 5 times better than coop
