Watkins would have been better served to have taken the comment and figured out that the team was still in support of the man for 'some' unimaginable reason to himself. Maybe he still shows enough merit to have credability.
Then using his analysis level, taken it to the Pee Wee League level and considered what benching a starter even at that age might send the message and be received by that very young player. He would either have learned better field applications or just given up. Hey, that is light years removed from the professional level of talent and commitments in the NFL.
To think that he doesn't know the difference between to and too?
If he finds the cost analysis involved in the receiver section too great...maybe he should average it out and see the real picture for Dallas.
So, Roy Williams cost the Cowboys a first, third, and fifth round selection. Well, Miles Austin, Ogletree, Crayton, and Hurd cost Dallas a seventh round selection.
Now, just going on cost of acquisition, you have a receiver group of:
Miles Austin
Roy Williams
Patrick Crayton
Sam Hurd
Kevin Ogletree
Jason Witten
That cost Dallas, in terms of draft picks:
1-first round pick
2-third round picks
1-fifth round pick
1-seventh round pick
In reality, I think that correlation, using common sense, shows some astoundingly efficient cost to production quality to the receiver group.
Now, maybe more than a residue brain cell form has thus been identified.
Then there is that horendous stumbling block of a salary for Roy Williams. Well, guess what, the brain trust for Dallas didn't trip on issues there either.
Miles Austin was All Pro last season and only cost Dallas in the neighborhood of under $2M. Crayton? Witten? Hurd? Ogletree?
For what Dallas has at receiver, I just wonder if it is any higher than teams with comparable productions from their receivers. What about a team such as Arizona? Maybe someone would care to do the work of salaries and cross league comparisons, just to put perspectives into some of the rampant associations and attitudes floating around as to base levels of organizational intelligence in operation in today's Dallas Cowboys franchise. I dare say here and now, the average amounts for Dallas receivers isn't on the high side of ledgers even here.
Now what is blindly being used as a stereotyping and attitude based view directly reflecting disappointment in a very low level of fan attachments?
I think this article at least, was another band wagon type of '*****' tossing...
You coach by giving standard, holding to those standards, and then coaching players up to those standards. Kind of sounds like Wade Phillips was being a coach.
It sounds like Roy Williams should be listening...also.
