Jerry said he would pay anything for another SB so why not Hopkins?

When is this team gaining to go all in? Hopkins would do it and we would have the most firepower in the league.

Because he means literally write the check and get the ring lol

Cowboys would have all the bullets but you need someone not afraid to grab the gun and kill the opposing team.

Shooting blanks on third and you need it against top defenses.

Any particular reason you might believe this?

 

[The Fonz]

Another BS talk from him ....he is trying to keep the fan interested

All depends on how much Hopkins wants. He is likely pricing himself out of Dallas.

While Jerry might be willing to pay anything there is a salary cap so he can’t. How do you get bang for buck when you’re already paying three receivers? He be better of spending the money on a guard or running back.

if he had a gun slinger QB i think he would go get another weapon. but he knows he's got a bus driver and they need to run the ball so a WR is not what is needed another RB is.

It probably isn't a good fit. They got a better deal with Cooks than they could get for Hopkins.

A stupid team like the Browns will pay him too much.

Jerry lies. SB isn't the goal. He's ok if it happens but his goal is really to stay relevant which means simply making the playoffs. The bar might be to get past the wildcard round but he wouldn't even have to fire Mike he would let the contract run out at worst. They will never go all in because if they won a SB then have a down year or to to recover that is too much of a toll they refuse to deal with.

I get that there is a value figure attached to everything...

But if Super Bowl is the goal...and with the squad the Boys have...giving Dak another weapon makes sense even if it cramps the finances.

I dont know Hopkins skills at this age, dont know the cap situation...but if he could be the piece that takes Dak far...you do it. Assuming you have the cap space, assuming you get value, assuming you help your QB, assuming other players werent available at positions of need and value...go for it.

Dallas is in a prime talent position. Not saying get Hopkins...but get any player available that helps even if squeezing the cap. Boys are close.

Let the market value settle and see how this unfolds financially. What teams are willing to part with and the length of the deal for a 31 year old. Overpaying for that isn’t the way to go. He’s good, but some are under the impression this would be the Hopkins of old that was putting up 1500 yards and double digit TDs. It’s around his age when players begin to hit that cliff at some point.

 

[Ranching]

I bet this is gonna be another Dak hate thread....

While Jerry might be willing to pay anything there is a salary cap so he can’t.

Three Reasons Why:

1) Paying a lot of money for perhaps a declining player that hasn't been available regularly since 2020 nor looked elite since that time period.
2) Cowboys already have their top 3 in place following the Cooks trade
3) Lots of other big contracts to be paid in the coming years.

I don't think we would be getting the same version of Hopkins we've come to know. However, I'm not totally opposed to the move, but if you have multiple teams bidding on multi year deals 15 million+ a year I just don't think it's a prudent move.

Or shooting directly at the targets, but the targets start running the wrong direction. Hopefully that won't be the case now that we have a new target in the fold with an intelligent gun instructor.

Do you really believe this kind of statement or is it a shtick.
