Garrett: More Cole Beasley outside

Putting slot guys out wide is a questionable tactic, but it’s not unheard of. Smaller receivers can have success outside—Julian Edelman, Danny Amendola, Wes Welker, Steve Smith, etc.

Don't compare Bease to those Augustinian players. Don't make Jeses cry.
 
Final word to you, Irvin88_4life

I don’t want to dog you too hard on Cole. Every fan has a right to like some players more than others...or flat dislike a player. It’s a free world and your privilege to feel as you do.
 
It's not actually a bad idea to mix things up a bit. I think it will be interesting to see Tavon and Beasley on the outside and Gallup on the inside for a play or two to mix things up. I'm willing to give it a go.

It’s omly a bad idea **** comes from Garrett. Otherwise, it’s brilliant.
 
Might as well line Zeke outside as well ... Zeke might also lead the team in receiving yards as well.

You ain't "dog" nobody. You are arguing over Beasley because I said he was terrible last year, which he was. I talked about how he was hyped up and folks made excuses for him because they like him. You said name 1 person so I did, which was you but that isn't good enough for you.

Beasley isn't special, he is just a solid slot receiver and can be replaced with rookies that can have the year he did last season. I don't hate Beasley I can't stand the hype and excuses some players get because of fanboys. I say the good and bad with any player but had I said something negative about a player most dislike than everything is good, right. It's a double standard.

I stand by what I said and never denied saying I can't wait for Beasley to get off the team because of so many acting like he is an all-pro. If you don't like what I got to say then move along, you don't need to reply.
 
Interesting ........just me but always thought the further he play from LOS his impact becomes less effective

Cole Beasley - WR - Cowboys
Speaking Tuesday, Cowboys coach Jason Garrett emphasized that Cole Beasley will play more snaps on the outside this season.

Garrett also claimed it will be a natural transition for the 29-year-old, 5-foot-8 slot man. "I think he’s always been able to handle it," Garrett said. "You’ve seen him have a lot of success at different times as an outside receiver." The fact that this is becoming one of the early tropes of Cowboys camp speaks to just how thin the Cowboys' receiver group is. If this is the solution to that problem, the Cowboys' passing attack is in even more trouble than we thought.

Too many people thing he is too short and too slow to play outside but the dude has 4.4 speed. He can dunk a basketball! Has the best hands on the team! I have been saying Beasley can play all the WR positions they just dont give him enough opportunities. Tom Brady would have a freaking field day with Beasley! Once again Dallas is about a year late in what I have been stating needs to be done.

Garret is just talking. He's not going to change. We beat the Eagles 3rd teamers 6-0 to finish 9-7, and Garret thinks its a meaningful win. This offense finished the year stuck in the mud and all we've done is fire the WR coach and draft more OL.

Onward through the fog.

Exactly and part of our offensive scheme this year has to be a variety of looks and players lining up all over the field to keep the defenses guessing
 
Dak can't hit a seven footer on the outside much less a midget.. I guess this means he will be throwing to the TE, and "nobody knows how to get separation because Dak is scared of a turnover" lmao...
 
I think they are way too small to play on the outside. If a bigger corner gets hands on them it's over. I mean maybe once in a while motion them out wide to switch things up but on a regular basis no thx.
I don't think it would be on a regular basis. I think occasional is fine though. A few post patterns, a few In patterns would be good on occasion, but I think they would use him more in the slot
 
Any WR that can make a 90 degree turn while running full speed can get open anywhere on the field! Beasley may draw double teams and bracket coverage that will free other players up. If Garrett would only scheme to use that as an advantage.

I expect to see a lot of work out of the slot with Cole I also think changes within the formations can open some other routs up.

Definitely more intrigue this year, not only the slot but WRs, DEs, and Dak with his new alignments.
