Cobb and Cowboys close to deal

[Aven8]

Great, so does being injury prone make things look better?

We just need he, Hyder, and Berry to stay healthy for one year. That’s all Stash. One magical season.

Cobb has way more targets, but their percentage of catches per target is basically identical, 69% to 70%.

He was talking about the last 3 years, and Beasley has more targets, although not by a lot. Their stats on a per game or per catch basis are very similar.

 

[Stash]

The flip side of that argument is that Cobb has taken way more punishment playing on the outside. Put Beasley on the outside in GB and he would have a ton of injuries.

Interesting unprovable hypothetical.

Where have I heard that rallying cry before?

 

[Dre11]

I'm curious, In what way do you think Cobb is definitely an upgrade"?

He can play on the outside as well, can be a deep threat down the middle.

Dallas better be ordering more hot tubs for the locker room

 

[lukin2006]

Cobb must be desperate

We just may have the corn for that Cobb.

 

[Avery]

Difference between this year and last year is we aren’t signing Cobb to be a 1 like we tried last year with Hurns. He’s going to be a 4/5.

 

[DFWJC]

Really, With us getting more from both Cooper and Gallup, Cobb does not need to even exceed Beasley. If irs close, and Im sure its at a better price, then it works fine.
Also , does not mean Dallas ignores WR in the draft if value pops up.

 

[This is Our Year]

The more I’ve thought about it all day, I’ve warmed up to Cobb.

He would not be a bad signing at all.

 

[Aven8]

Where have I heard that rallying cry before?

Well what other choice do we have? No draft picks worth a crap, and we aren’t spending money. Plus Cobb is a luxury at this point. So is Berry. We can make it with Heath and Hurns, or Austin. But what if?

 

[lukin2006]

Here is how I look at it. At least I did not have to google him. He'd be a good signing, should fill Beasley's role.

 

[Risen Star]

Why are people acting like Cobb rarely plays? He missed half of last year. He missed a total of 4 games the 4 years before last season.

Sean Lee he is not.

 

[Runwildboys]

Free rides on Rowdy's shoulders?

Reverse creepy cowboy?

 

[Stash]

He can play on the outside as well, can be a deep threat down the middle.

He can also do "injured" much better than Beasley ever could.

I'm just not overly impressed by looking at what the guy did five years ago. But, if he comes cheap? I guess. Either way, it's not a move that impresses me a whole lot.

 

[Stash]

Why are people acting like Cobb rarely plays? He missed half of last year. He missed a total of 4 games the 4 years before last season.

Sean Lee he is not.

His last full season played was in 2015. The second of TWO in his EIGHT YEAR career.

 

[Kingofholland]

Really depends on the numbers, but this would make it a very crowded WR group.

 

[Risen Star]

His last full season played was in 2015. The second of TWO in his EIGHT YEAR career.

And what I said is still true. He's missed significant time twice in an 8 year career. It's simply dishonest to label him an injury prone player.

 

[stiletto]

This was the year before he got hurt...looks fine to me if he can get back to that, the dude isn't THAT old..
