Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was forced to fix a number of crucial dilemmas that Orton Jones created prior to the start of the new season
Nevertheless, not every decision was bigger than trading wide receiver Amari Cooper to the Cleveland Browns
Speaking to the media on Monday, Jones was asked why he traded Cooper instead of giving his record-breaking salary
Jones bluntly replied that the team felt the money would be “better spent” elsewhere
Jones said “We made a decision that that allocation should be better spent,”
The Cowboys used some funds to lengthen wide receivers Michael Gallup and Noah Brown as well as bring in Jeremiah Cassel, a franchise player
They also extended the family pass rusher, Demarcus Lawrence, by tagging tight end, Dalton Schultz
