You guys are all missing the obvious. There’s a reason the Cowboys wanted a Cooks over a Hopkins or OBJ. MM has stated that he’s going to run a more west coast type offense. There’s a lot of short passes in that offense and Cooks fits the mold of a great West Coast WR.

We fill holes before the draft so we can be flexible in the draft. This signing doesn’t preclude our drafting a difference making WR if one drops in our lap.
Well, it's not $12 mil now, is it?
Iceberg's been here before they added the like button noob.
I agree with you. But, you are not getting Amari Cooper back. It was a Jerry Dumbo GM Jones trade and the Cowboys are paying for it like not drafting Randy Moss.

Popcorn points. Never scored when it actually mattered
I disagree! DHop is very much like CeeDee & LBJ is a cancer we don’t need & neither has the speed we desperately need for some separation out of our WR’s. I guess time will tell!
Yeah, he's a 5'10 deep ball threat.
I Disagree you can’t determine your gut feeling and start to mix it with what you dont know .. What is true facts is that brandon cooks is dominating good reciever that has put up 6 straight 1,000 yard seasons! NOW despite him being traded as he has been his only 28 and being die cowboys fans can say no cooks doesnt automatically win us the superbowl but I guarantee u that he definitely can get us to the championship game cus we are that close! Against the 49ers after pollard went down who was the other playmaker other then CD?? Nobody..Cooks is exactly the weapon we’ve been needing..
Rumblings are out there that he is a locker room cancer
I'd take Cooks over OBJ.
Well, if you want to make this personal, I can do that too. You might use Jimmy's pic on here but that doesn't make you any kind of authority or expert. Cooks is a journeyman 29 year old WR whose stat trajectory is on a downward spiral. He is not a #1. He's a #2 at best or slot wr. This isn't rocket science. He will give us the same thing TY Hilton gave us at 5x the price.
