Let’s Talk About Six, Baby: Cowboys’ WR corps ranks highly. Too high?
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...p-10-wr-corps-heading-into-2016-season/page/6
Starters: Dez Bryant, Terrance Williams, Cole Beasley
Key Reserves: Devin Street, Brice Butler
It wasn’t the best of times for the Dallas Cowboys or their passing attack in 2015.
But that doesn’t mean this club is short of talent at wide receiver.
You can’t expect a lot from a team that is forced to use four different starting quarterbacks and whose primary field general misses a total of 12 games. Such was the case with this club, which was without Tony Romo for the three-quarters of the season.
Two-time Pro Bowler Dez Bryant missed seven games and managed just 31 catches for 401 yards and three scores. In each of his previous three seasons, the 27-year-old wideout managed at least 88 catches, 1,200 receiving yards and 12 scores. In 2015, wideouts Terrence Williams and Cole Beasley tied for second on the club with 52 catches and eight scores, five of those touchdowns by Beasley.
Devin Street and Brice Butler are the main reserves. And this group would have a slightly higher ranking if health weren’t such a big issue in 2015. This will be a season to make amends...
