Cowboys among five teams reportedly interested in Pierre Garcon

[stilltheguru88]

I should say I'm shocked so many want Garçon but...............

 

[Bullflop]

I'm pretty confident that they Cowboys are interested only at a moderate cost and are just kicking the tires to see if he'd accept a modest contractual agreement. I'm not counting on anything coming from our interest, since another team is likely to offer significantly more than Dallas would be inclined to. You can't find out unless you throw your hat into the ring, however. Chances are, that's about all we're doing, imho. Some team will quite possibly overpay for his services and that's simply not our FO's inclination.

Garcon had 79 catches for 1,041 yards and 3 TDs. Terrence Williams had 44 for 594 and 4 TDs.

I'd take Garcon over Williams in a heartbeat, even at 31. He hasn't missed a game since 2012.

Especially as a #2 and the best running game in the NFL. He'd have a career year here because he'll see so much single coverage...plus him signing with us weakens Washington - who I expect to lose D-Jax this offseason.

 

[Texas_Pete]

Rather have some speed like MWallace or even DJack.

Guess we can turn into the Pats.

Turning intothe Pats is not so bad

 

[manster4ever]

Garcon is solid. Would be a nice pick up.

I couldn't agree more but I expect someone to pay him stupid money...probably Philthy.

They don't hear you. Taking Garçon over a guy like Ginn is sickening

Tedd Ginn aka James Jett aka Clifford Franklin?

Tedd Ginn aka James Jett aka Clifford Franklin?

Yes him. A 4th option wr with speed we haven't had since................forever at wr

 

[Mountaineerfan]

He is fast but give me garçon who is a more rounded player.

 

[stilltheguru88]

We already have a rounded player that makes 70 million. Unless you're content with sending Dez on fly routes every play again instead of..........a speed guy? But hey

LOL. Garcon is 5 times the WR Ginn is.

And I like Ginn. And he'll probably be cheaper, another benefit.

But cost aside, I'd take Garcon over Ginn without even blinking.

 

[jazzcat22]

It helps Garcon had 55 more targets too (than Williams).

Could be he was open 55 more times too.

I would take Garcon for several reasons. He is a proven veteran player, and he can still play. We need depth, as well as we have room to draft a young WR too that does not need to start right away.

Also, and this will not be popular. But Witten is getting older and we need to find his replacement as well. Witten gets those dirty yards needed to keep drives going. But how many times does he come up that one yard short, or less than a yard.
Garcon can help being that possession WR to get those 1st downs, along with Witten. Both can help keep the chains moving, as well as Beasley too.

Again, why would I want a lesser version of Dez? Makes zero sense

Garçon is 5x the route runner Dez is. Yes, he's not the fastest cat, but he's been a damn good receiver. I just doubt he'll be worth the money he gets.

He also has good hands which is a bonus if we do sign him. I'm for it at the right price

 

[stilltheguru88]

I'm trying to remember the last time Garçon did anything wrong f note against Dallas since we supposedly have such a bad secondary. 2012? lol meanwhile Ginn was a number 1 wr for a super bowl team. Let's talk facts here if we gonna talk

I think Ted Ginn is a faster version of Terrance Williams. Wouldn't mind him either but garcon is definitely another saftey net for prescott. He's reliable. I'd be happy with either. Garcon has decent speed

 

[Silverstar]

We need SPEED

I agree.

Kenny Stills is only 25, has sub 4.4 speed and got 17.3 yds/rec with 9 TD's last year.

Works for me.

 

[jamesdojr]

The team likes Pierre Garcon, and Garcon says he wants to be here [Washington]. But as many as five other teams (Rams, Eagles, Bears, Cowboys, 49ers) are expected to want this reliable veteran to serve as a security blanket for their young quarterbacks.

No! No Free Agents under 28. Youth and talent or stick to the draft.
