The Cowboys' futile search for an upgrade at the WR opposite T.O. was news to Patrick Crayton, the man who currently fills that role.

"Did the Joneses say that?" Crayton asked reporters during a chit-chat behind the Cowboys Golf Club clubhouse.

Yep, they sure did. Crayton took a moment to gather his thoughts after getting that answer.

"In a way, I guess it's a motivation kind of a thing," Crayton said. "That's how I'm going to take it."

For the record, Tony Romo isn't sweating the fact that the Cowboys didn't address the WR corps during the off-season.

"I feel very strong about the receiver corps." Romo said. "We've got a lot of young guys that are working hard, and they've got a little bit of ability. I think we're just fine at that position."

Well, Tony, I hope they have more than a "little bit of ability."

What, does he live under a rock?

I noticed that statement too. I guess he was speaking to their lack of experience.

I love how you guys are surprised Patrick "The Knucklehead" Crayton is clueless as to the fact that he is not an elite WR. After all his crap last season, he's got a big enough mouth to fit right in with the Giants, maybe they'll trade us one of their young guys for him.

 

[CrazyCowboy]

He needs some motivation

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

Yeah that "little bit of abliity" comment didn't sit well with me either... Geesh at least say we have a lot of young talent.

Attention: Patrick Crayton. For any and all topics concerning Dallas wide receivers,

Shut

the

hell

up...

...until you can make the clutch catch during the playoffs. Thank you.

thats what i was thinking.

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

Just another difference between a TO and Crayton.


TO prob never needs motivation to go and make a catch, make a play, run for the endzone, score that TD.

Crayton stays on my ****list.

I used to think Crayton was going to become something special...I'm still waiting. After all that trash talking and then falling flat on his face against the Giants, I'm no longer as optimistic as I was about him.

It's more like:
When the going gets tough, the tough get going and Crayton starts trash talking hoping nobody will notice he's wetting his pants.

I hope he proves me wrong.

You dont understand... I still see that ball sailing into the endzone where he would have been to catch it. DB was not close enough to breakup play.

:bang2:

Funny how times change, still remember the Crayton love when I first said he wasn't a #2, oh well.

You know he doesn't keep up with all of this news like we do, but he does collect a check. Don't know what the motivation will serve, it can't make up for a lack of talent.

He better not quit on a play like that again. Other than quitting on that play trash talking, I have no problems with Crayton.

You guys better get ready for it...

He said they had the last laugh last year, but he intends on ramping up the trash talk next year...

I Think the "they've got a little bit of ability" comment was just a figure of speech...

Agreed. I dont hate him but that was ****ed up.


And as much as I hate to say it.... THAt happened for a reason... the Giants were destined to beat the Pats in SB. They were relentless and THAT is wy they beat the Pats... oh and that lucky catch and sack evasion lol

We would have lost to Pats - we are soft.

Other than dropping crucial passes and the inability to draw coverage away from other WR's.

 

[rlgiv]

He is in denial. He believes he is an elite reciever. No matter what he does he will always believe that. If somebody comes in who is better than him and kicks him back to number three he will most likely take it personally.

Of course it is but people on here want to be so freaking technical all the time.
