Signed by Cowboys Gallup signs deal

[CT Dal Fan]

Almost laughable we just handed a guy 62 million with a bum knee.

He's barely played the last 2 years.

Hope this works

Barely played the past two years? He missed seven games in 2021 and that was it. And six were due to a calf injury.

Now you get Wilson back and we are good to go. All you bashes can suck it. They played this well. Cooper gone with no dead money, keep Gallup Schultz and hourly Wilson is next.

Probably won't be ready for the start of the year. Another dumb deal.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Wow if true there huge…I thought our resident doctors said he wouldn’t even start the season healthy.

All reports I have read say he will be 100 percent by August. Had the surgery in early February I think with a six month recovery time. I expect he'll spend training camp on the resistance cords with the trainers but there's no reason to believe he won't be out there week one in September.

 

[RS12]

Right now not crazy about it. I dont trust him to stay healthy. That will determine how good a deal it is or isnt.

 

[SwagSurfer]

Great deal

The $62 mill means nothing, it could all be funny money for all we know.

Edit...............looks like the guaranteed money is $27 mill, so basically $5 mill a year cap charge. Thats actually a pretty good deal, if his knee is shot we can get out of the deal without too much of a cap hit and if he is good to go its actually a bargin.

Some people acting like an ACL isn’t a routine injury in todays game. 99% of guys who suffer that come back just fine, I don’t expect any different here.

I'm happy he signed . Was worried he'd play hard ball after we traded Coop.

Still need another reciever, probably in the first 3 rounds

 

[Mannix]

WAY TOO MANY YEARS....I am warning you that this could really end up like Miles Austin, who was Dog S his last 3 years here.

Wow if true there huge…I thought our resident doctors said he wouldn’t even start the season healthy.

That's what I heard also...

 

[Bowdown27]

Still would love to know his cap hit. I’d say around 4-6 this year

 

[unionjack8]

To put it in perspective Zack ertz just signed with AZ for 10.55 per year on 3 years with 18m guaranteed and he's 31.....

 

[RoyTheHammer]

Overpay at first glance. Hope the breakdown looks more inspiring.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Number is too big. I don’t think he’s earned that payday

Gallup was an 1100 yard guy in 2019. In 2020 he slipped due to Lamb's arrival and last year he only played nine games. With Cooper gone Gallup is going to be the number two receiver again and his production should be back to where it was a couple years ago.

 

[KJJ]

Yaaaay! Something positive for the first time in weeks. If not for the injury, we would've lost Gallup too.

The Cowboys wouldn’t have traded Cooper if they thought they would also lose Gallup. No way could they afford to lose both. They would’ve done what they had to do to sign Gallup. He had a calf injury earlier in the season that cost him a number of games. He’s had a few injuries so no one was going to break the bank for him. He’s yet to prove he can be a number one receiver.

 

[Malhavoc]

I love the player from the slot, but Lamb has been a slot guy so far. Do we think he’s a top outside guy or do we find a WR on the outside and keep Lamb in the slot? I’m usually a best player available guy, but I’m not sure I want another WR in round one when a top G or C may be there.

They don’t need a WR in round 1. Pickens and Tolbert are my guys in round 2 if we go that route.

 

[Killerinstinct]

I guess he will be the highest paid no 3 receiver in the league. Fits right in.

#3 to who?
