Signed by Cowboys Gallup signs deal

[raven55]

well if you were looking for a stupid move wait no longer, he's a good player problem is another injury prone player and things get worse and worse this team needs to be rebuild but when you have jones in charge you will see what happens this season. after about 6 games the excuses will start and after 10 bourbon will flow in the head offices and of course it'll be putins fault

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

He’s being paid #2 money

Tyler Lockett is a step above all those dudes for sure. IF the pay is similar it does fit the bracket, but how many of them signed their deal coming off knee surgery that is just more than a month old?

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

If what they said was he's a price that makes no sense for them, then that's just as stupid. Makes no sense to not keep a WR who played better and who had better chemistry with your struggling golden boy QB.

It makes plenty of sense when you factor in Gallup is a superior player to Wilson.

I doesn’t seem injuries effect guys when they sign.

Well, whatever helps get you through the offseason!

There's no comparison between Gallup's simple ACL tear to Jaylon's extensive nerve damage and drop foot.

They’re both players attempting to return from significant knee injuries.

The Jones boys are dilusional since they believe Gallup is worth that much. Should have done a 1 year prove it deal.

Dude u have to pay market. U can’t just decide what deal u want to give someone. Lol

 

[goshann]

I think it would have been a shorter term 1 or 2 year deal from others. Most teams wouldn't sign a player to a long term contract in that situation unless maybe they had a longer track record of all-pro to pro bowl type seasons or it was just a really good deal. If Gallup is the 2019 Gallup its a fine deal, but keep in mind this contract paid him low-end WR1 money. I would expect him to be a difference maker and contribute 1k+ yards and 6+ tds a season. He's done that once in his career.

Lol. It’s a two year deal essentially with 10m covered in signing bonus. 2022 cap is tiny.

LOL...have a Snickers

He'd have made more if he wasn't coming off an ACL. Not a huge concern as most players come back fine from it. Really good deal that will look fantastic down the road.

I don't know how much more. I don't think anyone would have seen him as a No. 1, so I think we're mainly talking about the difference between him getting $12 million a year and $15 million a year. Dallas got him on the lower end of that scale because of the injury.

 

[AbeBeta]

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

Won't be ready to start yet season? Ain't the 80s no more. Grandad

 

[gimmesix]

Thought it would be $6 to $8 million, so I'm good with that cap number.

 

[charron]

Let him walk. Few teams would give him this contract especially with his recent injury history. Only a fool gives him this. If you thought he was worth so much they could have given him transition tag and see if anyone was willing to pay him. The answer would be no for a guy who will miss all summer. Let the excuses begin as to why Gallup and Dak can't connect.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

And you think Wilson is better then him?

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I’m always amazed every year how so me fans still don’t understand how free agency works lol.

 

[Tussinman]

And not only that whose to say his price wouldn't of been higher if he had played all 16 games (his 27 mil guranteed might of been 37 mil if he played all 16 games and broke 1k yards).

People only look at the negative side of it (why did we pay him max market value coming off an injury) when in reality he would of made MORE money if he didn't injure his ACL

 

[Beast_from_East]

So you believe they will not draft a wr?

Not in the first round, but maybe afterwards. So what can we expect from a 2nd or 3rd round WR? Just look at Gallup's numbers for an idea. Gallup was a 3rd round pick and in his rookie year had 33 catches for 507 yds.

So the way I see the WR depth chart is like this.....Lamb #1, Gallup #2, rookie WR #3, Noah Brown #4

 

[beware_d-ware]

Wowwww. This will be the next dead-money hit we'll be trying to get out from under.

 

[Oz-of-Cowboy-Country]

So 12 million of the 16 million from Cooper went to Gallup. Cooper is definitely worth four million more than Gallup. Just saying.
