Jerry Jones has a lot of good things to say about CeeDee Lamb.
The Dallas Cowboys had a good regular season last year followed by a disappointing finish in the playoffs. An ending to the year that Dallas fans are all too familiar with. The team needs to take the next step in the postseason, but the Cowboys have been surprisingly quiet in terms of offseason moves. For example, one player that people are expecting to get a contract extension is CeeDee Lamb. So far, nothing.
“I think CeeDee’s one of the best players in the NFL,” Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said, according to an article from The Athletic. “I think he’s very instrumental because of his position to quarterback success, personally. I think if you look at the complementary football, he does it all there for you. He’s multifaceted in where we can line him up, the type of things we can use him for. He’s dedicated in his practice and he’s sound physically. That puts him really right there at the top as far as a player. I guess the answer is without saying anymore, I think he’s one of the top players in the NFL.”
It is certainly a surprise to see the Cowboys lack of action this offseason, but Jerry Jones is clearly happy with how his roster looks.
“Very proud of this roster,” Jones said. “Very much think this roster, without knowing right now how much the rookies are going to contribute, we feel good about the promise of the team we’re going to have this year with this roster. We will have young players step up, no-names that become names because names have left and are off the roster. Those guys have got to step up. We’re all in with these young guys. We’re all in with this draft.”
