OBJ could be in the plans in FA

[Creeper]

All the quality free agents we could have acquired over the years and we have this sick obsession with 30+ WR coming off his second serious knee surgery in 3 years. What is wrong with our GM?

He's like a lot of fans and gets sucked into the known "name" trap

was listening to the 105.3 the Fan, and they are saying JJ and SJ said they still like to have to OBJ

WHY, the dude didn't sniff a field in 2022 and he's still trying to walk again after his second knee surgery in two yrs. You all witnessed how Gallop struggled most of the 2022 season after having his knee surgery, well you can expect the same type of play out of OBJ, so what's the advantage of signing him???????

 

[SloMo_Joe]

Lets hope not.

 

[mcmvp]

We need youth not older players.

Seriously. The other NFCE teams would be perfectly happy if JJ signed OBJ. He apparently wants to be paid a fair amount. It would just mean a continuance of poor decision making.

I could see JJ doing it though. He would sell jerseys

I would MUCH rather draft a WR, even in the first.

The problem is there is not really one and certainly not going to be one where the Cowboys pick. End of the first is a weird spot with the increased value teams are putting on the WR position.

Yes in the draft. Awww hell no at 26.

 

[Buzzbait]

Draft an outside speedster

If we draft a WR again I hope they do a better job of it this year.

I haven't familiarized myself with any of the prospects in this draft, I just know that in general there can be serious value had at WR towards the end of the 1st.

I would always prefer defense though, for the most part, in the 1st.

Amari Cooper > OBJ

By a country mile.

 

[quickccc]

I'm hoping not, I'm ready for the OBJ rollercoaster to be over. One minute he's basically a Cowboy, the next he may want the Giants. One minute he's healthy, the next it's all BS. Dude is getting kicked off planes, etc. Not one specific issue I have with OBJ, but it felt like more little red flags popped up as time went on this year.

Yeh .. i know the red flags

But it's Win mode ... cannot afford to wait 3 years down the road

Fight Club spoof movie scene:

His name's Amari Cooper.

The Jones Boys have made some dumb moves over the years.
Dumping Amari Cooper is in the top 5.

Jerry basically admitted at the Senior Bowl that they botched the WR position but said the money saved by trading Cooper allowed the team to do other things they would not have been able to do otherwise.

But Jerry acknowledged it was a mistake to depend on Gallup coming back from an ACL and a 3rd round rookie that could never crack the starting lineup.

That is why I am expecting our pick at 26 to be a WR.

 

[xwalker]

There are superstars coming out of the draft every year now, and some in later rounds. Why would you waste money on him when you can have one for cheap for 4 years.

The success rate for WRs in the 1st round is low.
- Rookie year success rate for WRs is even lower.

30 year old with bad knees playing on turf, what could go wrong?

Why? Just to sell shirts? This club has plenty of revenue... what they need are rings. It's been a while.

 

[Cali]

Rings, rings rings!!!! We NEED MORE RINGS!!!!
