I know its bleacher report, and a lot of you take it with a grain of salt.
But i find it hard how anyone can rank 15 more teams ahead of the cowboys wide recievers when you have Bryant and Witten.http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2091082-power-ranking-nfl-receiver-depth-charts/page/18

Let's not forget about Williams, either. Quietly had a better rookie year than Dez.

Teams (IMO) with a clear-cut better receiving group:
- Chicago
- San Francisco
- Detroit Lions
- Atlanta
- Denver
- Green Bay
- Indianapolis

I think its pretty fair. You have a monster in Dez, but a whole lot of unknown after that. Is Williams ready to step up and be a starting player? Personally I think he can be that player, but that doesn't mean we should rank Dallas higher based on what's possible. I really like our group, but who other than Dez and Witten have much of a track record?

Seems a little low but I'd have to look at every other team to really make an assessment. I feel like the WR corps is very strong. To be honest, I feel like every corps on offense is strong. The backup RBs could use a little work but there aren't many flaws on this offense. Maybe a dominant #2 receiver. I like Williams but he still has a lot to prove. I like Bernadeau as a backup. He gives the interior a great depth. Maybe backup tackle can use some work, but not really, because I trust Parnell.

Our receiving core is damn good.
Bryant is top 5.
Williams is a very solid #2, not sure where I could rank him but he is only getting better.
Harris is one of the best #3's in the game.
You gotta love Beasley. Guy can get open fast.
and a rook with some upside.

if you include TE's with JW, Escobar and Hanna we are just fine with guys who can catch the football.

I don't take bleacher report too seriously. Its a recipe for disaster.

San Fran? Seriously? Indy is pushing it.

They have Philly ranked higher than the Cowboys. That's a real laugher.

I'm not sure Green Bay should be higher after losing James Jones and Finley.

Again, it's the Bleacher Report.

Clearly, we made 4th in scoring offense with our sweet, consistent running game.
Defense/ST probably spotted us like 70 points last year.

Edit: by my count, going through every scoring drive, Dallas had 91 points that were either scored by the defense or the drive went <10 yards.

I have the Cowboys above the Eagles.

I also have the Cowboys above the Packers. Beyond Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb, the Packers have surprisingly little proven talent. Their days of throwing 4 or 5 1000yard caliber WRs are you are behind them.

EVERY team gets help on scoring from it's defense/ST. The Cowboys weren't alone in this. Unless you did this for every team and Cowboys came out clearly benefiting more than all the rest, this argument is bogus.
