Is there any WR on this list you wouldn’t take over Lamb?

[Aerolithe_Lion]

advanced analytics are cool at times, but this is a really weird composite score of selective data. it's an interesting thought experiment, but you can just look at the results independent of brown and be comfortable ignoring it.

you think chase is ranked too high, but he's tied with amari cooper and tee higgins (who he's clearly better than and still relatively outpacing while missing three games)
do you think justin jefferson is fourth best?

slayton 7th?

deebo samuel nearly 50th while aiyuk is 8th?

even accounting for injury (since chase is still ranked 8th) kupp is 30th?

and what is it that chase is being credited for that he hasn't done yet?

Absolutely nothing

That’s fair, but he’s young and could get there. He also might lap those guys in cost just because the change in market.

hey I’m all for that happening 100%, although I hope he’d take a hometown discount if that happens

Hometown discounts don’t exist. Ask anyone on the roster ever extended.

and actually we usually get the Jerry Jones markup where he overpays

Every good FA gets overpaid. This isn’t just a Cowboys thing.

Tyron gave us a hometown discount. Brady gave several to the Pats. They exist. They're just really rare.

I'm only taking Ceedee over Moore and St Brown. Everybody else is better

 

[stilltheguru]

Lol I got no beef with ceedee. Top 10 for sure. We'll see in the playoffs if he wants top 5. Devante look like he don't want his spot anymore

Brady’s company was literally being paid by the Patriots, which didn’t count against the cap.

People always bring Brady up, it’s too bad more aren’t informed. I’m sort of shocked it’s even allowed in the NFL, but we all know if Dallas did something like this, I’m sure there would be penalties.

 

[mmohican29]

Dallas doesn’t simply vacate the position if you dont Have lamb. You likely keep Cooper in that scenario, and he can garner similar double teams as any WR1 in the nfl does.

Do you believe teams are building “can’t let CeeDee lamb beat us or we’re boned” gameplans? GB’s secondary didn’t seem to treat him as anything special and they still won anyway.

You might want to re-visit this post.

Ceedee has certainly taken it up several notches and jumped up the WR rankings significantly the past month or two. We still need a viable #2, which we don’t have IMO, which is why I rant on about having kept Amari one more year. I like Gallup but even fully healthy, which he may never be this year, he’s never going to force a double team, ever.

Cowboys helped Tyron through very serious family issues during his rookie contract, and Brady had a billionaire wife

Interesting. That I did not know

 

[darthseinfeld]

It will be interesting if Moore gets a HC job and we replace him with Reich and go with a more WCO passing game. Lamb is a good fit for a WCO

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Ceedee has certainly gotten better the last month or so.

 

[Whirlwin]

You don’t know how they would play on a different team. With a different scheme. I’ll keep CD Lamb right where he is.

Hows that "billionaire wife" working out for Brady this Christmas? Brady prioritized 10 Super Bowls over highest paid. The GOAT.

Oh dang brought this thread back to life lol…this is the one where Lamb isn’t a #1 right?
