4 million needed for Zekes new deal.
Zeke > Hurns
I am perplexed as to why anyone would have an issue with this.
Hurns is a WR that wasn’t all effective last year and is coming off a serious leg injury.
How can anyone have an issue with this?
I was basing it on that tweet that was posted. I never once thought he was a lock and him getting cut.....I thought it was a possibility of happening but not for sure. But according to that tweet by Jane Slater they wanted him to take a pay cut. So if he's taking a pay cut....that seems to mean they had intent on him coming back to this team.You did:
Or maybe it was just a poor choice of words on your part?
Releasing him was fine. I'm all for it. I just think the timing of it is bad business and could impact how future free agents view the Cowboys when we did Dez dirty with a late release and we waited just before camp to cut Hurns.

They have plenty of money to sign Zeke. Don't let them fool you.4 million needed for Zekes new deal.
Zeke > Hurns
Unless its going over my head I don't get the point in asking him to take a pay cut if they were going to cut him anyway.I guess that is debatable
But he's never been a #1 in his career lol. So why did they think at this point he would be? Now if you say they thought he could be apart of a receiver by committee then ok. But if they thought he was a #1 then they are fools. He's never been one.They were banking that he would step up and he didn’t which forced us to trade for Cooper. Gallop’s development and the addition of Cobb made him expendable. He probably wouldn’t have been a full go at the start of training camp anyway which was going to further reduce his chances of making the team.
So a poor choice of words on your part then? Got it.

What are you talking about? It wasn't a poor choice of words. If they wanted him to take a pay cut then what does that mean? You believe they wanted him to take a pay cut so they can cut him? What sense does that make?
But he was going to make the team. They wanted him to take a pay cut.

Well its no secret they screwed up receiver last year......but Hurns getting cut is that they feel they have better option available now than they did last year. Its not about how good or bad he is.They weren’t banking on him being a #1 they were hoping he would step up and the combination of him and Thompson would be enough. Thompson was a dud and had to be released during the season and Hurns simply wasn’t producing which forced the trade for Cooper.
The mistake is your comprehension. I'm telling you what I meant and you are still asking the same question lol. I'm flat out asking you what is the point of taking a pay cut if a team doesn't want you on a cap friendly deal? You won't answer so may be you are the one that's having a tough time admitting your mistake?I'm talking about this:
About you saying "he was going to make the team". Can you not admit your own mistakes?
That's exactly what it was. It was moronic then and it is now but they ended up with Cooper......so I guess they saved themselves from that. Very lucky.What they thought is they could scheme guys open but forgot who there coach was and realized real quick they better go get some talent because this coach isn't scheming anyone open and this QB isn't throwing anyone open.
I could see him being resigned after testing the market
