This is my feeling as well. I’m sure Jerry and CeeDee had a call, and CeeDee left that meeting totally jacked about getting the opportunity. I feel the same way about #10-19 Wide Receivers as I do about sweet potato fries. Like, they were once cool, novel, and you didn’t see them all the time. But now they are everywhere, and we are still supposed to still pretend that they are more special than regular old French fries. I’m excited for CeeDee Lamb to wear #88. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRs see those as tight end numbers. You might as well be asking your RB to wear #45 Yeah, not arguing that. Not what I said either. Let's try again. Yeah, but slimming?

The number 8 is round, 1 is straight. It's an aesthetic thing. 10-19 make you look slimmer, 80-89 make you look thicker. WRs prefer the former, that's the whole reason for the trend I know this is a silly thing to get worked up over but I think 88 in the slot between 13 and 19 looks bad, and we should've given it a longer rest. But if there's one thing Jerry knows it's how to turn a profit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are suckers though, it's a tired shtick. Speaking as someone who was suckered into thinking Dez was our missing piece as a teenager I guess it's a new era now in the 2020s with a new coaching staff but the 70s, 90s, and 10s Cowboys feel way more distinct. Oh well, guess he just has to produce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, guess he just has to produce I thought Dez was good. We didn’t win the biggn but it’s a team sport. For the record I played WR in HS and most of peewee.. I wore #1(Mike Williams), #12, and #8 And I mostly agree those are the best looking type of numbers for WRs.. I think #80 and #88 will always have a place though in WRs hearts. Moss made #84 a pickle tickler as well. #13 is probably the new most popular. Though Cooks, followed by T.Hill, are making the 10 jersey popular Edited April 30, 2020 by DaBoys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's totally subjective though, I'm sure he'll look great The optics of Jerry pressuring him into doing this are also just not great and feel like a microcosm Edited April 30, 2020 by matt79511 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, I don't know you guys have a lot of mouths to feed. I could definitely see Reagor out producing, especially if other guys can't stay on the field.
