Receiver Amari Cooper will start tonight Youth Randy White Jersey , will play a lot and will see his share of targets.鈥淚 just think he鈥檚 going to bring some energy,” Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said Monday on his weekly radio show on 105.3 The Fan, via Jon Machota of the Dallas Morning News. “This isn鈥檛 going to be an ease into Amari Cooper situation. He鈥檚 going to get out there and play a lot, we鈥檙e going to get the ball to him.鈥漈he Cowboys didn’t spend a first-round draft pick for a half-season rental. They are planning on Cooper being their No. 1 receiver for several years to come.They already are talking extension for Cooper.But before the Cowboys commit money worthy of a No. 1 receiver to him, they need to be confident Cooper is that. 鈥淚n general, we believe we鈥檙e going to sign Amari to an extension,” Jones said on the radio. “That goes without saying. We feel like he was worth the No. 1, and I think part of making it worth it is that we eventually sign him to an extension.鈥漈he last time the Cowboys traded for a No. 1 receiver and gave him a contract extension, it didn’t work out so well. They traded first-, third and sixth-round selections for Roy Williams and a seventh-round choice in 2008 and gave him a five-year, $45 million extension with $20 million guaranteed.The Cowboys got 94 catches for 1,324 yards and 13 touchdowns in 40 games out of Williams before releasing him. After joining the New York Giants as a late-season addition Randy White Jersey Stitched , veteran offensive lineman John Greco came to training camp as somewhat of a bubble guy on the roster.Both a guard and center, the 33-year-old seemed to be the odd guy out at both spots.Jon Halapio and Brett Jones were the top centers, and rookie Will Hernandez and free-agent signee Patrick Omaneh were the top two guards. Greco and long-time starter John Jerry were fighting for a roster spot.Funny thing happened. New York traded Jones to Minnesota in training camp and Greco beat out Jerry because of his ability to play center and guard.Two-plus weeks into the season, Greco is now a starter. The 11-year veteran is getting an unexpected chance because Halapio broke his right leg and ankle in the third quarter of the 20-13 loss to the Cowboys.”Any time you lose your partner in crime, one of your buddies in your room, you feel for him,” Greco said Wednesday as the Giants (0-2) practiced for Sunday’s game in Houston against the Texans (0-2).”We know that he’s going to come back stronger than ever, but at the same time we just have to do everything we can this week to try to get a win. It’s going to be a tough road game, awesome atmosphere down in Houston, so we are excited about the challenge and opportunity.”Greco is on his third tour with coach Pat Shurmur. The two also worked for the Rams, and Greco also was in Cleveland when Shurmur coached the Browns.Greco joins an offensive line that has struggled. New York is ranked in the bottom five on offense in yards per game, total yards passing Cheap Randy Gregory Youth Jersey , total yards running, first downs, points and passing average. The line has allowed eight sacks, including six by the Cowboys on Sunday night.”We just have to focus everything on in-house,” Greco said. “We don’t really listen to the talk outside, we know we have to play better and that’s the focus every week. When we get some wins it’s going to be the same thing. There’s going to be no let-up, and that’s how you’ve got to approach it.”You can’t be complacent and when you know things aren’t going your way you just have to do everything extra, and do everything in your power to be the cause of the wins and not the cause of losses.”Quarterback Eli Manning spoke with Greco this week and does not expect a problem making the transition.”He’s been here all training camp,” Manning said. “We’ve worked together, we’ve gotten snaps throughout training camp and everything so that shouldn’t be a problem. He knows what’s going on. We’ve met this week, we’ve talked a bunch on some calls, making sure we’re saying the same thing and hearing things the same way.”The bigger problem will be getting the offense in gear. Manning did not have enough time to throw and there were not many holes for rookie running back Saquon Barkley against Dallas.”I think we’re close on things Youth Larry Allen Jersey ,” Manning said. “You’re going against good players and they’re going to make plays sometimes and that’s fine, but when there are opportunities and when things should be picked up or guys should be going certain ways, you got to do those things and give yourself an opportunity to make those plays when they can be there.”Greco is looking forward to helping the offense. A year ago, he was sitting home waiting for someone to sign him.”I knew I still had enough gas in the tank that I could’ve been playing and I was just happy I got the opportunity here last year and then again this offseason, and here we are,” he said. “So, that really hasn’t entered my mind. It’s more of a laugh thing I can do at myself but yeah, I’m excited about the opportunity.”NOTES: LB Olivier Vernon (ankle), CB Eli Apple (hamstring) and LB Connor Barwin (knee) did not practice.
