No sure if serious.. did you not see them let Murray walk over money? That proved to be a good decision when the guy they got to replace him on the cheap out rushed him by like 300 yards. They aren't paying big money for the RB position. The big money goes to QBs and WRs.

Of course I saw him walk.

Of course I know big money goes on QBs and rbs.

Did I say plow all that money at a free agent RB? No, what I ******** said was I would prefer they put their resources in a free agent running back over a second wide receiver earning top dollar.

Not sure if serious...memes are rotting peoples brains.

Thank you for explaining what happen to your brain. BTW... that's not what you said, but I now have no doubt that's what you meant to say. To avoid confusion maybe next time you say exactly what you ******* mean. Deal?

First you said...
I would much rather they entice a RB with that cash.

Then you said...

Those aren't exactly the same ******* thing.

I'm not sure Dez would be okay with Jeffery on board. I see those two clashing. That would be very bad for team chemistry.

Dez probably knows he needs one on one coverage before he'll get the ball, so having another receiving threat would be in his own interest,,, I imagine he's tired of the crappy Cowboys teams too,,, they have only had one good season since he was drafted.

I was a huge supporter of grabbing Jeffrey in the draft, he has panned out, proven he is a great talent and can be a #1 somewhere. However, we should not even remotely consider throwing $13m per year at a #2 receiver at this point. We have way too many other needs.

Taking a flyer on Percy Harvin with an incentive-laden deal is something I'd be intrigued by. We could structure a deal similar to the Melton one; we aren't on the hook for much if he busts, and we can secure him for 2 years at a huge discount if he rebounds.

That is your logic and it makes sense but immaturity defies logic. We don't always go along with what is best for us.

With Dez healthy, we are fine at WR.

Dez is a clear #1. No need to pay for 2 #1s when we have as many holes as we do.

T-Will and Brice Butler are fine at #2. Both offer size and speed. T-Will is productive, he's a clear #2.

Beasley and Whitehead are fine for the slot. Beasley is becoming a great safety valve, he's a clear slot receiver.

There's quality and depth at WR, no need to spend more at the position, especially considering this doesn't even account for Witten being a pass-catcher.

Cheaper and younger options is to draft Treadwell at #4. Save your money and salivate as he does a number on DB's.

...after he runs 4.7 at the Combine, taking him at #4 will be a reach.


We need a game breaking speed WR who is a STs return man.
