The one move that may have brought me back (Kupp) was an illusion

[Pokes12]

Was an illusion. All the reports that had Dallas signing Kupp yesterday vanished when Seattle picked him up.
Jethro and his stupid son could have had me with that one. But no, they spent their money on Dante and were not going to pony up any more inheritance money for Cooper. The wide receiver room is still one man. Aside from Lamb we have nothing. Get Tyler Warren in the draft. Do something that will have a real impact. JAGs be just that, JAGs. and OBTW, DLaw is correct. Lump of coal, and no SB, not even a playoff run is in the future.

 

[Reality]

I have not been happy with Cowboys front office in many years, but in this case, Kupp is from Washington, so it may have had little to do with Jerry or the Cowboys and was simply because the Seahawks are in Washington.

You see that contract? Not at that rate Xavier Restrapo in the draft is literally the same type player less polished but creates separation

In fact there are several receivers I hope they take serious look at

You had to know! This happens EVERY year wirh big names that have dropped of a little so the throw their name in the jerry bowl to drum up interest and once the media attention on them reaches its peak they promptly sign with the highest bidder.

Kupp did not want to come to dallas and join the circus.
He and some other players went back to what was their home.
Rico is from carolina, and is why I think he signed there.

Many players in NFL now see jones boys for what they are, and the circus as not serious about
winning. That is going to turn many player off to coming here.

I know I would not want to play here, the way it has been here for last 25 years.
And it seems to be getting worse! Low ball on pay, 1 year deals,and they act like they dont care
if you sign or not.

I hear you. I wanted Kupp too. Dallas would never do it because of the Joneses ego but I would bring back Amari Cooper.

 

[Jipper]

They will pick up whichever wr out there slips through fa at a reasonable rate and then draft one, they need a number 2 not a number 1, I'm fine with passing on kupp at 15mm

 

[Denim Chicken]

Kupp has bad ankles and does not get open like he used to. He gives you nothing over Cooks. I'm not happy with the FO, but I agree not paying $15 per for him.

 

[Flamma]

He got 3 years 45 million from Seattle. Did Dallas compete with that?

 

[big dog cowboy]

Did Kupp really want to play in Dallas? Did the Cowboys have any intention of paying $15M to any WR?

And the Cowboys strongly disagree with the "Aside from Lamb we have nothing" line.

 

[dstew60105]

I have not been happy with Cowboys front office in many years, but in this case, Kupp is from Washington, so it may have had little to do with Jerry or the Cowboys and was simply because the Seahawks are in Washington.

He’s also not worth 15M per at this stage of his career.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Get Lockett who seems to play more than K. Allen, who the last couple of years have been hurt.

Kupp may be broken down for all i know, but he has at least three things this team desperately needs: he's tough as hell, he's a grinder (e g , great blocker) and he's a champion who stepped up when the pressure was at it's maximum.

The Kupp move would’ve been an illusion too. Not sure why you are so hung up on him. That would’ve brought you back?

 

[shabazz]

Many of us tried to tell y'all.....Jerry doesn't shell out big bucks in FA AND why the hell would Kupp want to come to a 3rd place organization that has no realistic chance of getting that chip

 

[shabazz]

He got 3 years 45 million from Seattle. Did Dallas compete with that?

Seattle is spending money to at least TRY to compete for the division.....is Dallas doing that?

Easy choice for Kuppage

 

[Doomsday]

$15 million a year for Kupp was a no go
