Is Cobb an upgrade over Beasley?

Yes, but I have made it well known that I cant stand Beasley

 

[Idgit]

I don’t think so. He’s hurt more, but has been similarly productive when on the field.

What he can do, though, is play outside if you want to move Cooper in. Which we should play around with.

That’s the beauty of Cobb signing. Cooper can now move all over while creating mismatches.

It’s only going to make Gallup better

He's slower than Witten, no he's not, he's a great route runner, so what, he's washed up, he's cheap, he's Hurn's money, 1 year, he's a great addition, he's a Beasly replacement, he sucks worse than Beasly, no he doesn't and so on and so on...

While I'm impressed with yer post, as the intertwined ebb& flow were dynamically intriguing pertaining to the polar mental parallels,,,unfortunately, I fail to see the + positive gained parallels in this acquisition as of yet.

Difference is Cobb can play outside on the boundary, Beasley obviously can’t.

 

[Tangle_Foot]

I can certainly say with all confidence that I'll be cheering that he is

 

[joshjwp]

I'll take Cobb over Beasley simply because I can't stand how Bealsey runs his mouth.

 

[Ranching]

Is he a better rapper?

 

[Carson]

Is he a better rapper?

No. But he’s tolerable on Twitter at least

 

[Mannix]

Problem is that Dak makes slow receivers even slower by not hitting them in stride.

 

[CowboyRoy]

What do you guys think?

Cobb is better than Beasley. HE can actually run after the catch and presents a bigger target. Can get deep. I dont know the salary, but I am assuming it is several million less then what Beasley got?

The NFL has spoken with the contracts of both in terms of market value. But market value wasn't value to us.

Beasley was a bad fit for a run first team like us. Should be a 3down player on a pass first team. For us, he's a third down specialist. Austin is a better fit for our base downs to complement Zeke.

Beasley was also a bad fit in just not being viable out wide, so that Dez/Cooper couldn't take the slot.

Do you think this means more 3 wide? I think that would be our best 11 on offense.

 

[CATCH17]

Beasley is better.

 

[Alexander]

Beasley is better.

Nuh uh.

 

[SoupcanSam]

Quick on your feet huh!

IMO that's the bigger picture with Cobb. Is he better than Beasley as a pure slot? Eh, it's close. Moving Cobb outside, is Cooper a better slot than Beasley? Heck yeah.

 

[DasSchnitzel]

Given the state of our roster, I'd rather have Cobb. We're talking about WR3 in a run first offense, give me the higher risk, higher reward player with the ability to play inside and outside.

I dont think Beasley getting 600 yards and 4 TDs all inside will help this team as much as Cobb getting the same stats half inside and half outside. That flex frees up a lot of opportunities.

Factor in the price tags and it's a no brainer to me.

 

[ZekeTrain]

No rap albums. No stupid tweets. Won't run his mouth. Can actually block.

Seems like a win to me.

 

[Alexander]

Fact of the matter is that Beasley had outgrown his little cocoon.

He became a celebrity slot WR when quite frankly that idea is laughable by nature.

Now he is free to show exactly what he can do.

Fly, little Beaz. Fly.
