No Ball Hawks at the WR Position

You can see it in the route running and on contested catches. The Cowboys receivers do not attack the football. Amari Cooper was a guy who would use his body and make aggressive moves to the football in play. Should have kept that guy.

A lot of the analysis of "Dak's" INTs last year showed that it was the receivers hanging Dak out to dry by not crossing the face of defenders. Not cutting them off.

Sad to see professional football players who don't do the basics of competing for the ball in the air, but it's pretty common. Has been for years.

Myles Austin made his big jump in productivity for that year or so by coming back to the ball. So simple, but somehow doing the simple can still set you apart in the NFL.

I really like AJ Brown with the Eagles. He’s a big physical type and just over powers corners. Reminds me a lot of Dez.

We don’t have a receiver like that, Lamb as good as he is is more of a separation type receiver not someone that can regularly overpower for contested throws and we all know most of Daks passes are contested if not thrown in the wrong zip code entirely

I guess you didn't watch Dez catch all kind of balls when Romo used to just chuck the ball near Dez.

Yes, near him.
