Cowboys must be desperate at WR

[Rockport]

I don't think the Cowboys are desperate for RB or WR. They are just doing what any good team would do. Checking out what's out there in case injury forces them to bring in someone at the position. Not desperation, just due diligence.

Williams scores TDs from yards after catch. What you talking about. You win games by scoring points not getting yards. Do you know how to play football, the object is to score more points then the other team.

Oh...


So you score touchdowns and you are good. Gotcha

 

[Frozen700]

Ok of a guy had 3 catches 45 yards 3 TDS and another guy has 15 catches 250 yards 1 TD who you taking

15 catches, 250 yards and a TD. It shows me he can put in work, and even though hes not scoring as much as the other guy, he's most likely setting other players up to score.

3 catches 3 touchdowns, just shows me you are basically a looter in a riot.

 

[Frozen700]

10 TDs is 10 TDs. Looking for a reason to discount them is just being a ****** bag for the sake of being a ****** bag. Just sayin'. (Not that I think you're a DB, F, just for the record). My point is, that ANY player that scores 10 TDs for your team is a damned valuable asset to your team. I don't care if it's a FB who scores 10 times from the 1.

I agree, a valuable asset, a situational guy. Not a starter though.


By your example, a FB who can come in goal line and punch it, is a great weapon. Not as a starter though, or a guy who gets a majority of the snaps or carries.

Same goes for Williams. I wouldn't mind bring him in, when we want a big player, or to spread out a D.

Then no use to talking to you cause you want yards not scores.....which by the way is how you win the game.

What I want consistency.

It's not every down you'll have a chance at a big play, or start off in the red zone.

I want a guy who can do the little things, like LR. He made teams pay for rolling coverage else where. He would eat them up with short routes, medium range, and long range from time to time.

I don't want a guy who's MAINLY effective when the play breaks down, WIDE OPEN, or has to break free for big yardage, for him to be useful.

You know what that is? A role player, a guy used in certain situations. Those are not starter qualities. Touch Downs or not.

Just watched "Draft Day". Kevin Costner traded three 2nd round draft picks for the #6 pick in the draft. That's about as likely to happen as me becoming president.

Ok, sorry I had to rant.

In our offense I don't want our number 2 wr catching 60 balls.

If so something has gone horribly wrong.

I'm fine with our number 2 catching a lot of tds.

If so something has gone extremely right.

 

[bark]

Of course they are desperate at wr.
Ever since the commish changed the rules allowing teams two under inflated balls in play at the same time. Cowboys need more playmakers for the second ball

All 3 picks would need to be early to fit the points chart.

In a run first offense with JWit at TE I absolutely agree.

 

[Spectre]

Maybe they aren't sure about keeping Dez long term. No telling how that is really going. We definitely don't have anther #1 on the roster.

PANIC MODE=True

Think it probably has more to do with Terrence Williams, and loss of Harris, than it does Dez. We have no depth at the position and Williams is JAG. Shoulda drafted someone.

I see your logic, behind the fact you don't want a guy coming in catching 60 passes because it may seem like we are now forced to pass, ect ect.

But what I'm saying is, how many have we seen Room need to pass, or just a passing play being called, and he tries to force it to Dez, or is forced to throw a wild one to written? The reason is because most of the time Williams is not open, and most of his plays are big plays, not exactly a chains mover. On 3rd and 5's we can never rely on him, he's not that type of receiver that excels at running routes to pick up the short-medium yardage. He also needs to be open a lot.

The touch downs are nice but I just want more consistency when faced with single coverage.

 

[cowboyfan4lyfe]

None o fthe above, this is the management way of churning the bottom of the roster. Keep up grading the talent. Lookhas establishe at the WR position. ON the Depth Chart after Dez Witten is number 2 and he is getting old. None of the ackup TE's have stepped up. We all as fans doubted Williams during last season. Beasley has estaablished his place on the team, but he's not a deep threat. So I can see what they are doing.

Romo completed 70 percent of his passes.

 

[Frozen700]

Romo completed 70 percent of his passes.

Yeah because because we actually had an o line, and Williams could still barely get open with time consistently.

Williams is a good compliment to Witten and Beasley. Those are the chain movers. Bryant and Williams are your down the field big play targets. You won't find a much better receiving corp. You don't need two stud recievers. You don't even need one if you have a great offensive scheme. See Tom Brady.

If you watch the Pats, all their wr's are not studs, but you can't just play them 1 on 1 and disrespect them every play. They all can run almost every route. And move the chains.

 

[Section446]

I'm still not convinced that Williams is the answer at #2, I'm okay with them taking as many looks at other WR's as they'd like, especially if they're former first round picks. Not too long ago that people were saying "they must be desperate" when we brought in McClain.
