For me that kind of big money splashy move should warrant a true WOW factor playmaker, which I don't see Cooper as.

So sure you want to bulk that receiving corps up, but I like what we have, I hope we can find some young talent in the draft, and FA isn't over, I wouldn't hate bringing Robby Anderson, Sanders or Funchess on a cheaper contract.

Elite is a relative term. I encourage you to look at Daks numbers before Cooper arrived and compare them to his numbers after Cooper arrived. Cowboys were in the bottom third of the league in 3rd down conversions. After Amari Cooper arrived, Dallas vaulted to one of the best teams at converting 3rd down.

Cooper doesn't need to touch the ball to make a difference.

Cooper is a young QBs best weapon. My thinking Redskins pursuit of Cooper was more about Haskins than anything. Trying to surround him with premier talent.

Agreed

Amari Cooper is the best route runner in football, he is ELITE and a top 10 all around WR, The SKins went after him big time.. It is what it is, good for Dallas

We already have a legit WR1. Cooper is good but I don't think you need to spend 20+ on a big name free agent. Much rather of thrown 12 million a year at Hooper and still had 10 million for other players.

I'm also higher on Harmon than most. I think by next year (2021) he is a legit WR2. A vet like Sanders to me makes perfect sense. Or a later round draft pick after Chase.

yea i'm not about the price tag on cooper. his production is able to be replicated for a cheaper price

We got the beat route running rookie WR in the league last year

I hope we don't end up with Cam Newton, groan.

Why even bring that up? I hope it wasn't because someone heard something.

[Ohioskins]

So far I am underwhelmed at our moves and I really like Fuller.

[Chico23231]

Leonard Floyd was cut by the Bears today...I wonder how he would fit as a 4-3 LB? guy seems pretty solid

I cannot imagine that they would do this...it would make no sense. Plus, they have no idea how healthy he is because they can't do a physical right now...not to mention, I believe he hasn't even been cleared to play again yet.

Non playoff team

Sign everyone to elite contracts except let your #1 corner walk.

profit?

Better end up being the greatest receiver in NFL history.

Obvious panic move by Jerry.

Played himself again. Another team likely swept in and panic signed him.
