Twitter: Cowboys signing Brice Butler

[dallasdave]

We feel good about our WR corps -- words that might well live in infamy, or something.

More like something

 

[dallasdave]

To save his freaking life, no doubt . . .

Dak holds the ball to long.

 

[eastsideboy]

you k

Maybe we should sign Johnny Football..

can you imagine the ratings

 

[JohnnyTheFox]

Because both are 45 years old and have been out of football for 15-20 years

Surprised anyone remembers Jeff Ogden.

 

[lk8701]

LOL. Josh Gordon is available so of course the Cowboys sign Brice Butler instead.

 

[kskboys]

I don't have to care about this, do I?

Surprised anyone remembers Jeff Ogden.

Lol, I hadn’t thought about him in a long time. I’m not sure I ever would have again if you hadn’t mentioned him.

Lol, I hadn’t thought about him in a long time. I’m not sure I ever would have again if you hadn’t mentioned him.

Remember going to training camp and watching him practice among others. One of the local media types had the gall to compare him to Michael Irvin{based on training camp highlights.}

WHATS THIS SAY ABOUT OUR WR GROUP? Guess we gonna find out tonight.

 

[MizzouCowboy4]

God i dislike this move

 

[Rayman70]

This signing is almost conceding we made mistakes cutting him or whatever. Its a bad look and a step backwards. I bet we release Deon Thompson for Brice. THAT I hate even worse. Thompson at least has speed.

Besides his speed, the thing Butler was good at was getting open while Dak was scrambling.

Butler is nothing more than a highlight player because he's pretty much a non factor for the majority of the game.

I'm not big on Butler but he has speed as well. Austin, Thompson and Butler would give us some blazing speed on offense. Not sure coaching can scheme to use them properly though

 

[Frozen700]

Will instantly be our best WR

 

[links18]

No, I think it's a case of having a guy available that already knows the offense and has a rapport with Dak. It could be a case of the Cowboys not being pleased with a certain receiver. As others have said, maybe it is Allen Hurns. He got a two year deal, but the bulk of his money is only guaranteed if he's on the roster at the start of the 2019 league year. So this could be a cap move, too.

What did Hurns do? Imply it wasn't the receivers' fault our offense was trash?

 

[Echo9]

Any validity to this beyond a random tweet?

 

[Idgit]

It's just a signal that we're looking for more downfield from the WRs. Butler for a player like Noah Brown or maybe one of the extra TEs isn't going to matter a wet fart in the scheme of things.

 

[Idgit]

Any validity to this beyond a random tweet?

That's a good question, too.

 

[kumizi]

For some of y’all, why is Tavon Austin safe instead of Hurns or Thompson?

He is worthless.

WHOOPS

 

[Jeffkills]

We rollin!!
