Signed by Cowboys Gallup signs deal

[Plankton]

Yeah nothing says solid roster building like using three of your last four 1st round picks on WRs.

This would be idiotic.

I fail to see the issue with this.

 

[kskboys]

I need to see the breakdown of the deal but I don't love it. I don't think Gallup is that good...hopefully it is a 3 year deal with about 6 mill avg...

Gallup is a 1,000 yd WR w/ great leaping ability. What don't you love about it?

6 mill is backup money.

1 1k season, his completion percentage is about 50%....

I have to see the structure of the deal but he is overated.

 

[G2]

This is really a 2 year deal, if Gallup doesn't play very well. And if he does, huge bonus.

 

[ICP]

Is there any info on what his cap hit will be this year?

 

[Plankton]

It's a lot of money for a guy who has had two different leg issues in the past year, and has had an issue with drops. CeeDee Lamb better be a true #1 WR, or this offense will have some problems.

 

[Landryhat73]

Has the contract been posted yet? Year by year?

 

[FiveSuperBowls]

Rumor is Boys will not be able to afford Wilson, so hopefully Wilson gets paid and let the draft compensation begin.

I think the issue here is that the Cowboys want to improve this team with the draft. By bringing back Schultz and Gallup that’s two positions they can draft later in the draft or not at all.

They will add whatever comes in the NFL draft.. to what and who they deem as "core key " vets that they have priority in re-signing. While they sop up what they
want as bargain based filler type vets in FA.

That's the frame work formula and team philosophy of Stephen Jones, whose been given more control and front office power than ever before and more than
what many posters refuse to believe.

Now let’s draft Chris Olave and be set at WR.

Yeah let’s be like the Lions and keep spending 1st round picks on WRs

 

[MichaelWinicki]

With 27 million guaranteed, you're not getting him at 6 per year. It's still a good deal. He can do very well with targets.

Exactly.

And the players know the cap is going up big-time in the not too distant future.

 

[visionary]

Now let’s draft Chris Olave and be set at WR.

that would be stupid but yeah we’ll likely do it

 

[MichaelWinicki]

6 mill is backup money.

And the cap is going up with the huge TV-rights deals the NFL has signed.

 

[kskboys]

1 1k season, his completion percentage is about 50%....

I have to see the structure of the deal but he is overated.

So, you don't understand that a downfield WR automatically has a lower comp %? I mean, seriously? C'mooooooon.

A lot of fans overlook this. Dak and Cooper were not on the same page last year. Coop's road games are atrocious and stretches where he just disappeared. But it is a risk for the Cowboys to sign a WR with durability concerns to a deal with that kind of guaranteed money.

yeah, the QB had nothing to do with Cooper “disappearing “ LOL

you go girl

 

[visionary]

Which means it is basically a two-year deal if he doesn't live up to it.

27 million for 2 years for a #2 WR who won’t be ready to start the first of those seasons

that would be extremely stupid if this is a 2 year deal

 

[DuncanIso]

Not bad at all. As long as he’s actually able to play, and play well, in 2022

they must not be worried.

I honestly thought his days in Dallas were over after the knee injury.

 

[SackMaster]

IMO, this is a great deal.

Gallup is > 75% (or 60%, depending on if you look at total cap hit vs just the savings) of the WR that Cooper is, and is only getting payed at that the lesser rate.

I said at the beginning of the season, if I was in charge I would let Coop walk and resign Gallup in the offseason. And that was before the sub-900 yard season Coop had and before Gallup's injury. Even with that information, I still would have gone with the same plan.

So ya, I'm good with everything that has happened with our WRs so far this year.

Now hopefully, it all plays out on the field like I suspect it will.

Good job Jerry.
