Coop is a better route runner. Cooks has more quick twitch and speed. Hands edge to Coop. They are both pretty darn good.

What do you guys think? I’m not talking about stats. Would you guys rather have Cooper or Cooks as WR2? I do think Cook gives us that deep threat we’ve been missing, and has good hands. Cooper beats him in route running.
they are basically the same player with a near mirror image in stats., sorry but heres clue in case you need to locate one,

COOPERS been gone more then a year get over it hes not an option,

why raise the question?? cooks is here Hes a Cowboy, like it or not, there isnt a choice.. tell me how much coopers done here for us in 18-21 that we didn't do without him last year? same one and done correct why the hubbub , dude is similar to cooks and obj they are very solid former starters who are slipping to WR2 status. Doesn't matter got guy and now we roll with it.,

the constant luv affair with cooper is astounding.. he was just solid payer that didn't do anything special here but be solid 1 that if. No special or elite years not one. sick of the crying over his loss.. hes been gone hes never done one special thing for the raiders, cowboys or Browns's, just does his job nothing more, nothing less.


there are ,much better wrs out there, Dhop was the best of the 4 but cost too much for his age.. you all act like we lost rice or Irving. heck AC never even had run like Dez did.

Yes, Cooks can be one and done, but Cooper might have been the difference in a Super Bowl last year. We had no legit #2 receiver. Teams would have had to pick their poison with Lamb and Cooper.

And the 18m they would have saved last year would have helped cover Coopers salary this coming year and he could have been cut in 2024.
proof ? i have proof hes was not in 18-21 hes was here, no SB, no NFCCG

sorry his $$ was used to assemble a team last year 22mil for wr2 didn't fit..sorry get over it..shopw me the NFC/AFC championship games or SBs AC played in for all 3 teams? i bet you cant find one. i can find 2 for cooks.

show me how AC has ever elevated a team to a championship run here or elsewhere..theres zero proof.

Last year was the best team Dallas has had. Cooper easily could have been a difference maker. Pretty confident that he would have made a difference in a very close game against SF. And we beat Philly without him during the regular season.

Because Cooks rode Brady's coat-tails to the playoffs it makes him a better player? LOL. His playoff performances were pedestrian.

I am not against the Cooks move given the current status. But for last year it surely was an option. Dallas could have got basically the same cap space we did last year by restructuring Cooper as we did by trading him. In fact, that is what Cleveland did immediately after signing him.

Nope disagree. umm we lost by 6 with coop AT HOME to the same team..jeez wake up your drool for coop is scary..seek help..his 22mil would have prevented us from using the little extra cap we had to fill hopes all year long..stop forgetting the 16mil was used and very necessary,, get passed it.. pedestrian is coops career again same player

coop 4 games 247 yards thats 11 per
cooks 6 games 447 yards at 15 per..

coop didn't do \chat here in the playoffs nothing in the SF or rams games to speak of..

Sorry but it’s not BS. Cooper disappeared frequently in big games. All this the owner and team is the worst rhetoric is getting old. We’re having an A+ off-season and we’re arguably the best drafting team in the lg. If you guys wanna be mad be mad at Dak. He earned that lol.
If it was up to some of you Dak would’ve been out the door for a low round draft pick along with Amari and the Cowboys would have missed the playoffs and had an offense ranked in the mid to upper 20s.

Not sure what you were watching but we easily make playoffs with Rush.

Dak deserves all the criticism he’s receiving right now, he’s folded in big games in back to back years. The FO is killing it, let’s give them a week before complaining all I’m saying. I would absolutely draft a QB as well.

Cooper is better. We gave him away cheap, admitted it was a mistake but now get Cooks for cheap and his money is better. We'll see how he fits.

Cooper was the better player. Cooks is probably the better bargain since houston is paying part of his salary.

It wasn’t his fault he wasn’t being targeted enough. Many who cover the game blamed Kellen Moore, including Cooper during a radio interview. He had just under 1200 yards and 9 TDs in Cleveland with a bad QB situation.
There’s always an excuse. The fact is he put up 865 yards and then was due a large sum of money which he was worth nowhere near. Value vs production wasn’t there. Cleveland will figure that out soon enough.

Not sure what you were watching, but we were winning games with our defense and kicker when Cooper Rush was at QB. Our defense was on pace for 70 sacks. In the wins we had with Rush our defense never gave up more than 17 points. Once Philly exposed him and our defense/pass rush started to regress the losses would’ve started to mount. We had a middle of the pack offense with him and one of the worst passing offenses in the league. None of our receivers were producing with him not even CeeDee. Once Dak returned we became the highest scoring offense in the league. No one showed any interest in Rush in free agency, which is why he re-signed with the Cowboys.

The production wasn’t there because he wasn’t being targeted. Even though he wasn’t being utilized to his full potential he still put up 865 yards despite missing two games and he still led the team with 8 TD catches. He produced this past season in Cleveland on a bad team that had QB issues.

Btw, for those asking, I've moved on from Cooper. I don't want him here, this was just a question on what you guys thought. Basically, the better fit now.

Dallas could have reworked Coopers deal just like they have reworked Dak and Martin and so many others. This came down to Cooper pissing off the Jones boys.
Cooper did the one thing you can't do with the cowboys, question the QB,same thing happened to Dez and Beasley when both said they were always open but can't throw the ball to themselves.

If you want your receivers 10 pounds overweight, mysteriously quiet for several games at a time, poorly conditioned and having a penchant for throwing the QB under the bus, Cooper is the guy.

My commented solely related to what could have been done last year. Obviously in a new year, new situation, you go with a guy with similar production for half the price.

Cooper could have made a huge difference for Dallas last year. We ultimately counted on Noah Brown and TY Hilton as Gallup was nowhere near 100%. Big difference.
No doubt there and even the Dallas front office has admitted they botched finding any WR help.
But two things can be true:
1. Dallas could have really used Amari last year.
2. Amari is nowhere near worth his contract.

Dallas lost in the playoffs to the same team at home with Amari in 2022 as they did without Amari on the road in 2023.

Complete nonsense take but sadly par for the course on this board.
Cole Beasley loves Dak. He is fighting and entire Bills fanbase because he loves Dak more than Josh.

Dez lost his explosion and couldn't get open.
His post Dallas career speaks for itself.

Amari was simply overpaid to be a 1B type WR and his days were numbered when CeeDee fell all the way to us in the draft.
He pouted about targets as they fell below CeeDee's, missed practices with injuries and ignored NFL (and Jerry) covid mandates.

The difference is, Cooper was being thought as a #1 receiver which he wasn't, Cooks has always been a high end #2 receiver. 8 million less as well.
