Over Wilson? Wilson has played well too.

Over Wilson? Wilson has played well too.

I think it will be 6 receivers.

Cooper
Gallup
Cobb
Austin
Wilson
Smith

I think Johnson, Guyton and Lewis can make the p.s. When/if Austin gets hurt I think Johnson will be first man up.

100% Wilson needs to be that 5th receiver. Its very very obvious.

100% agree that this SHOULD be the group....

Same thought I’m pulling for Wilson, and Devin to both make the team. Big fan of Cedric

The big question is: "How important are Noah Brown's crackback blocks to the outside running game?" Because Brown is NOT a better receiver than Wilson or Smith. But he MIGHT BE a more valuable player for the Cowboys system.

Wilson and White should get reps with Dak.

 

[Zekeats]

In my book he's winning the 3rd WR spot.

Sorry, I mean Smith needs to be the 5th guy. over Wilson.

Wilson has played well in a very limited time. What 5 plays compared to what, 20 from Smith.
Smith is ahead of Wilson. But this team likes their draft picks and often will keep a lesser draft pick over a FA. But Wilson is cheaper and under contract longer. That is the only thing he has over Smith right now.

Why?

Who is White?, Mike White?

 

[CowboyRoy]

Why?

The guy was complete stud in college. Top end speed, great route runner, and play maker. And he appears to be fully healthy and making plays again. As the 5th receiver he will most likely not get as much playing time anyway and would give him another season to get back to where he was when he was drafted as a 2nd round pick.

I see him as a possible Jimmy Smith in reverse. Us being the benefactor this time.

Ok. I just don't see them giving up on Wilson after what he's showing in camp. I guess Brown is the odd man out.

Wilson has the size to do the same crackback blocks to the outside running game that Noah Brown does. Now, Wilson might not be the downfield stud blocker that Noah Brown is, but Wilson still can block. Not sure Devin Smith could do that though.

Tiny blocking TE. Maybe he takes Rico's roster spot.

I'm skeptical we keep him. The offensive personnel have moved from Garrett's max protect fit to a max threat fit with Moore. No Threat Noah isn't a fit.

Smith might be the starting slot receiver in 2020 - after Cobb and Austin have their contracts expire. That leaves a 5 man WR group of Cooper (1st round pick), Smith (2nd round pick), Gallup (3rd round pick), Wilson (6th round pick) and Brown (7th round pick) in 2020.

Nice. Room for drafting another young WR of need next year.

Has Brown even practiced yet? If not, I am guessing the Cowboys will stash him on PUP for the first 6 weeks just in case they need him later in the season.
