Smart front-office business decisions have given the Cowboys a “fast-pass” in acquiring Amari Cooper

The Dallas Cowboys were not happy with their wide receiver group after last year’s performance. That ultimately led to the release of Dez Bryant, who failed to reach 100 yards in single game last year. The front office attempted to replace their #1 WR by trying to sign Sammy Watkins in free agency. Watkins was the fourth-overall pick by the Buffalo Bills in the 2014 NFL Draft. But the price was too steep and Watkins signed a three-year deal with the Kansas City Chiefs for an average annual salary of $16 million.
