What say you?

 

[Hennessy_King]

The only ? on that list for me is juju. I think one of the minnesota guys shoulda been on there.

 

[Ranching]

Where's T-Will?

 

[Direwolf63]

The only ? on that list for me is juju. I think one of the minnesota guys shoulda been on there.

Yeah I would put Thielen in there somewhere towards the bottom.

It's interesting because Amari wants top 3 money. And looking at that list, I'm not sure he belongs on it.

 

[TWOK11]

I’d take Cooper over JuJu, Adams and Allen

 

[QuincyCarterEra]

Evans over Odell? Lol

My personal
1. OBJ
2. Hopkins
3. Julio
4. Thomas
5. AB
6. Tyreke
7. Adam's
8. Evan's
9. Allen
10. Diggs

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

The top 6 is first tier. The rest are second so yeah those guys are gonna be a toss up.

 

[EST_1986]

The only ? on that list for me is juju. I think one of the minnesota guys shoulda been on there.

Juju is nice but I want to see what he does now that he's the #1 guy before throwing him in my top 10

There's reason for optimism there. Games without AB

Week 15 rookie year- 6 catches for 75 yards and TD
Week 16 rookie year- 9 catches for 143 yards and TD
Week 16 2nd season- 5 cacthes for 37 yards and TD(not good)

But that's 85 ypg and a TD in each

small sample size of course, he's for sure got the potential to be top 10 but I want to see a full body of work.

 

[CATCH17]

I hope Cooper doesn’t get paid like he is top 10.

He is probably the best route runner I’ve ever seen and that doesn’t make him a current day top 10 WR. Pretty wild.

 

[Future]

I’d take Cooper over JuJu, Adams and Allen

Me too. And Tyreek Hill.

 

[QuincyCarterEra]

The homerism is strong in this thread

 

[EMMITTnROY]

What’s frustrating is that Dak is ranked regularly by experts as an average QB, around 17 or so, and Amari isn’t rated as a top 10 WR, yet we are set to pay both like they are the best at their position.

Both will be demanding elite contracts.. Very frustrating.

 

[CouchCoach]

Cooper would not have made his list because of the short season with DAL and leading the league in drops for two seasons. The reason I like Burleson he's all about the lost art that doesn't get discussed when they gush over speed and route running, catching the ball.

If Cooper gets top 5 money, the first drop and we're having a Zone meltdown. There really is only one skill position worth and deserving of top money and I wouldn't give it to him, but they will. The triplets are going to be making what the sextuplets should be getting paid.

I think we'll sign both to big deals. Kind of let everyone else debate it its a good move or not.

I will say this....
Because about 96 WRs start every Sunday vs only 32 QBs, a top 15 WR is better at his position, relatively speaking, than a 15th ranked QB.
Of course, QB is the more valuable position, and is compensated as such.

Yeah, I'll take JuJu.

That 1 "not good" game is better than 4 or 5 of Amari's 9 games with the Cowboys.

Where's T-Will?

Likely working on the scooter skill.
