It seemed like a bind but I don’t see it that way emoji Cooper had to be released because of his $22 million and the fact that CeeDee Lamb is starting to pull away is the number one wide receiver and it was time to make a change we needed that money to finagle the salary cap last year and moving forward no I meant Stephane Gilmore I don’t know who the hell you’re talking about like Gallimore I mean are you a Cowboys fan we can only fit around it for Brandon cooks which I feel is a steel he’s every bit as good as Amari Cooper by healthier and faster they both have had about the exact same type of career in the back and we’re able to add players this year to make our team better doesn’t mean we’re gonna get better but they made the same type of **** round picks for a player I wanna marry Cooper’s level as we got from our keeper therefore it was not a mistake the mistake was under estimating how old Tolbert‘s gala would play there for the person that should be let go with Cedric Wilson
Hilarious you thought we would beat San Francisco with Amari Cooper or have the first round by one with him we did neither he is not elevated the Raiders or yet the Browns from what I can see he is a very good wide receiver for his money dictated he was released before his bonus money became permanent or a record in our dead cat and maybe you should study the salary cap he needed to be released it’s no different than when they release DeAndre Hopkins Dalvin Cook and other players that were surprised releases this year or players like we got Stefan Gilmore and Brandon cooks for fifth round picks it is what it is the moves are made but your incessantly pushing the narrative emoji Cooper somehow with an elevator our team.

As simple as this he’s a salary cap casualty it had to be done you’re a smart people up at the ranch that knew I had to be done and when it had to be done so we can use that money during the year to fill holes and we end up using almost all the cat bringing other people like peters and bar in TY Hilton and always other guys later in the year yes Noah Brown failed us yes Tolbert never developed fast enough yes Michael Gallup didn’t come from his injury fast enough you say put us in a bind they thought those things were gonna happen in a positive way not negatively and it didn’t so I go back in time I’m still waiting emoji Cooper goal of keeping Cedrick Wilson.

Sorry, I didn't even think of Stephan Gilmore CB because I thought we were talking about last 2022 my bad. Ha, I have been on this board and suffered more as a Cowboys fan than you can probably ever imagine, I was here during the Campo years. I was posting on this board when it was the Silver Star board Ha. It doesn't bother me that you think because I didn't think of Stephan Gilmore that I am not a fan, I just think it's funny.
Cooks is a good player, but we are talking about 2022 not 2023. Cooks didn't help last year. Your point doesn't make sense. I know you think that cutting Cooper helped us land Cooks, and yes you are right, the Cowboys needed to land Cooks because we needed a receiver.
Why did we need a receiver? Oh, it is because we sent our other probowl receiver to the Browns for a 5th round pick?
I thought Cooper gave another weapon that Dallas desperately needed especially after Pollard went down, would the Cowboys have beat the 49ers maybe, maybe not, but I think it opened up more possibilities, that is for sure. We were a couple of plays away in several games last year and I think Cooper could have made a difference and I don't think it is too high a leap to believe that it would be possible for the Cowboys to pull out a couple more games and Dak throw a few less interceptions because Cooper was and is so precise in his routes and has better hands than every receiver on this roster including Lamb.
So the questions are:
Is Cooper better than Lamb? Let's say no.
Is Cooper better than every other pass catcher on this team? Let's say yes.
You don't believe that having Cooper on this team would not have helped the Cowboys possibly win that game in San Fran and possibly one other game during the season?
If you say you don't think Cooper could have helped us during the season or in that playoff game, I just don't know what to tell you. I would be hard pressed I think, even on this board to find anyone who would disagree that Cooper could have helped us during the season or during that playoff game.
Who cares why Hopkins or Cook were released, they were not released last year and they couldn't help the Cowboys last year, I know you're trying to make a point about the salary cap, but each situation is different and it really doesn't apply to the Cowboys at all.
Who cares what the smart people at the Ranch; by the way it is no longer the Ranch, think. They make mistakes and they have to live with the consequences of them. One of the mistakes they made was not working with Cooper and throwing away a possible Super Bowl year because they didn't like his personality. Yes, they are genius's down at the 'Ranch'.
The call it the Star now. They moved from Valley Ranch to Frisco.
