Robinson at least had hands. DHB would be Alexander Wright part Duex.
Wright had 101 catches over a long career - 26 catches his high in one season. DHB has 140 in 4 years - 64 in one season and 25 yds short of 1,000. And that is without anyone like Aikman at qb. I wish Wright would have been so good.

Huff can actually cover. He has played a lot of CB over the last couple of years.

Wright also played on a team that ran first and the league was not so pass happy. If DHB had hands he would have topped 1000 yards. He can only catch passes if they are "easy" and he is catching uncontested.

Wright couldn't do that at all. You are giving him waaaaaaaaay to much credit as a wr.

Wright was at best a 4th option in the offense here, behind Irvin, Harper, and Novacek. DHB got more balls thrown his way in his first 4 years than Wright did all of his career. If he was not such a reach by the raiders he would be on to his 3rd or 4th team by now.

If they could get Heyward-Bey cheap enough I would be on board. They need a Laurent Robinson speed guy out there. Not sure he would be "heady" enough to be on the same page as Romo like Robinson was though.

Robinson is available.;)

Would love to have Huff, but some team will over pay for him so the Cowboys have no shot at him.

DHB could easily end up in Baltimore or Carolina.

Fills a need for either team.
How does another deep threat speed guy fill a need in Baltimore? They have a really good one there already.
