I am pretty sure no.
Kirkwood had 21 targets in the last 8 games with Drew.
Gin had 30 targets in 5 games
Smith had 44 targets
Carr - 14
Meridith - 10

Before you guess at 2017
Ginn-70
Coleman - 37
Snead 16
Lewis 15

Teddy is not Drew, they dont play the same, have the same game plan, self confidence, confidence in their their receivers... yet people expect things to be the same.

Re: Dez Bryant looking like a beast in his workout videos ahead of NFL return

Kirkwood (hammy pull pre game vs Rams), Tre'quan (rolled ankle) & Carr ...

All have been underwhelming at WR.

I'm really concerned about T Smith long term. He has a slim frame & I question the conditioning. Based on yesterday's injury report (DNP), it's looking like he won't be ready to go on Sunday.

Re: Dez Bryant looking like a beast in his workout videos ahead of NFL return

We've got the money to sign a player before the trade deadline I think. There are options out there but we are trying hard to develop in house cheap talent.

Also, I totally agree about Fontenot. His department has been hit or miss since his arrival. Unfortunately, it's mostly miss though. He gets it right once in a while but he has brought in some real head scratchers. Our college scouting department is top notch and we need the same impact from our free agency signings which sadly have been disappointing overall.

Free agents?
Except for pro bowl caliber LB Damario Davis

Re: Dez Bryant looking like a beast in his workout videos ahead of NFL return

How come no other team wants Dez if he's so great? That's the question I always bring up when our fan base gets excited over him.

Dallas passed on bringing him back and later had to trade to get Amari Cooper when they needed a WR. Dak Prescott had the highest INT percentage targeting a receiver in 2017 when he was throwing to Dez. The highest of any QB to WR and that was the real reason he burnt himself out there, besides his big mouth.

As I said last year; I worry about Brees throwing to him and he either drops the ball, or it bounces out of his hands for an INT. That's what happened constantly in his last year in Dallas. Prescott had just 4 INTs in his rookie season; 3 of those were balls intended for Dez. Seriously, pull some tape on the 2017 Cowboys offense and see how ineffective he truly was. Dez has been overrated his entire career all due to being drafted by Dallas in the first place. There is a reason the other 31 teams don't want him. For crying out loud, the Patriots of all teams would've done something with him by now. They need WRs too.

I never understood why we cut Coleman. Always liked that dude. Awesome blocker.

Now that there, I have a problem with...

Knew we didn't have a real GM much less one that had an eye for talent when Mickster rubberstamped Payton's selection of Meachem with a first round pick...

Robert Meachem, a wide receiver, who was out-of-f*cking-shape when he showed up at rookie camp...

Oh, I knew then, we'd have some problems scouting and identifying draft candidates...

If Tre-Quan is out of shape, not motivated, with all the resources in kinesiology and nutrition that the NFL can afford and does provide...

I mean WTF?!? How freaking lazy and dumb must you be???

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
