The truth is, Beckham is a better WR by the numbers.

Not sure after the ACL surgeries, but he's still likely better overall over his career.

Simple.
What do you prefer?
Cooper-Lamb-Gallup or Lamb-Gallup-OBJ?

I don't think anyone's telling OBJ he's coming to play WR3.
I think that’s the disconnect here. He is most definitely coming in to be a WR3. Maybe can work his way into 2 if injury to MG or if he surpasses him but he’s a dangerous 3.

He went to LA knowing he’d be a 3, he just got to 2 when Woods got hurt. You think he’s gonna go from being healthy and willingly signing as a WR3 to coming off another ACL and just jumping to a WR1?

Every analyst who’s talked about OBJ quantifies it by saying he’s not a WR1 so I thought it was pretty common knowledge that he wasn’t that anymore. I think this may be the first time I’ve heard him referred to as a 1.

For the record, I never said he'd be a #1.
I even listed him as #3 for your vote scenario.

Cooper still disappears in road games. He did it in Oakland, he did it in Dallas, and he's doing it in Cleveland. Don't believe it, look it up.

Doesn't seem to be a QB problem but rather a Cooper problem, for whatever reasons.

Then at that point it probably comes down to price. In the same ballpark Cooper, for 4-6M I’ll take OBJ granted he’s back to at least the player he was last season.

That’s like saying the Bulls won 55 games without Jordan… obviously it’s still a good team. We won 4 games with Cooper Rush. The fact is Cooper would of made this team even better…
Man….it is nothing like MJ not on the Bulls lol. Bulls won 72 games with MJ. 55 without him is a huge difference. The thing about Coop is he doesn’t show up in big games. We would still be 6-2 at best or maybe worse with him if he’s here maybe we don’t see Noah Brown make those timely catches he’s made.

It depends on price. I’d rather have Odell for a one year deal at 4 or 5 million than have Cooper for 20 million.
Coopers deal is actually averaging under 13 million a year now. The Cowboys mismanaged the situation because Cooper was always going to be willing to do his contract considering his guaranteed was almost up. If they didnt throw him under the bus and making it known they were moving, Cooper would have been a very attractive trade asset
