One more from D-Law, who remains the absolute best.
Here, he was asked if he pays attention to what other top-tier pass rushers like Von Miller and Khalil Mack are doing this season. #cowboyswirepic.twitter.com/GGGMuWiZYY
Amari Cooper after his first practice as a Cowboy: “It’s a fresh start. This is a good team. I’m just giving them something to build on, I guess you could say. And it’s America’s Team. Who wouldn’t be excited?” #cowboyswire
At this point in the news cycle, all this stuff has been said a few dozen times. But if you’re looking for a snapshot of why the Cowboys felt comfortable giving up a 1st for Amari Cooper, this quote from Jason Garrett does the trick. #cowboyswirepic.twitter.com/VsPCTg3oZX
No practice for Zack Martin during he bye week, either. C.J. Goodwin is having surgery on his broken forearm today, and the Cowboys will see what his timetable for return is #cowboyswire
Geoff Swaim is getting an MRI today. Jason Garrett is hopeful the results indicate that he won’t be out a long time, but he won’t practice this week #cowboyswire
Jason Garrett confirms what has been suspected since yesterday, referencing the Cowboys’ scouting department. Doesn’t seem like they’re sold that the Cowboys can find a receiver as good as Amari Cooper at the top of the 2019 draft. #cowboyswire
Jason Garrett says the Cowboys don’t view Amari Cooper’s concussion from a couple weeks back as an issue. He’s undergoing his physical currently #cowboyswire
Garrett's evaluation of Amari Cooper: "We feel like he's a very physically talented guy. He's big, he's fast, he's quick and explosive, he has play-making ability, he's a good route-runner, makes contested plays on the ball." #cowboyswire
Jason Garrett says on @1053thefan that Dak Prescott saw Michael Gallup on the sack/fumble in the fourth quarter and was preparing to throw, but Ryan Kerrigan care free and broke up the play #cowboyswire
Jason Garrett says on @1053thefan that Amari Cooper’s youth and experience made the Cowboys feel better about using a first-round pick on him, especially since they would’ve likely been looking for a WR in the draft #cowboyswire
Jason Garrett tells the guys on @1053thefan that Amari Cooper will get to the Cowboys’ facility to get to work this afternoon. Cowboys have practice tomorrow and Thursday during the bye week.
Garrett says Cooper’s going to need to work overtime to get up to speed #cowboyswire
4. So, yeah. I dunno. I’m intrigued by Cooper’s talent, but I don’t think I’d have paid that price for him. As with all trades, only time is going to tell whether it was smart or not.
2. Man, that’s a high price to pay. The beauty of a 1st round pick is that they’re supposed to provide 4-5 years of elite play at a low price. Cooper’s price tag is going to sky rocket after these nine games. And what about his long-term future?
The Cowboys announce they’ve agreed to terms with the Oakland Raiders to acquire WR Amari Cooper in exchange for a 2019 first round draft choice on Monday. #cowboyswire
