Dez Bryant?
I never wanted him before the season but if TY can't play for another 1 or 2 weeks, what the hell can it hurt?
I know he had his own dropping problems, but how much worse can he be than this crap we have seen so far from these bush league WRs? |

It would smell of desperation, which of course describes our wr situation acuratly. Still I don’t think he is worth it. We ain’t gonna win even if we got Jerry Rice in his prime. We don’t need any short term answers

I would rather give a 2nd round pick for Amari Cooper.

What the hell for? Are the drops from the receivers we currently have not enough for you? Cooper is a drop machine. He has a ridiciulously high number of dropped passes in his career. That's the last damn thing we need right now is more WR dropping passes, especially giving up draft picks for one to do it. Hell no.

Cooper's 68.8% catch rate (best of his career) this season, would seem to suggest that his drops are largely behind him. While those aren't earth shattering HOF numbers, I would take that all day long over Chester Rogers 40% catch rate. |

My feelings around not wanting Dez on this team are a little different than what's been stated so far.
This is basically a brand new team - very young, all new coaches, and one of the most important things they're trying to do here in this rebuild period is build an effective culture. By all signs, the group psychology of this organization has been gradually more and more imperiled with the progressive losses of Dungy, Manning, Polian, thought leaders like Tom Moore, and even Jim Irsay handing off significant operational responsibilities to his kids over the years. I'm not saying any of these things were mistakes - change happens - but the following "choppin' wood" years of buddy coach Pagano and little big man Grigson resulted in a lot of "me-first" bullshit in the locker room that it is clear the new regime is working very hard to replace. And so far the signs are good that there's some success there. Dez Bryant is 29 but he still has talent. But he also brings a ton of emotional baggage and, as far as I've read, an incompatible attitude to a WR room full of young guys who definitely would not benefit from his example. The short term gains on the field are not worth the long-term obstacles his influence might bring. Just my 2 cents |

You may take that over Rogers, but I absolutely would NOT give up a draft pick for a guy who has dropped as many passes as Cooper has, and certainly not a 2nd round pick like you suggested. Last edited by Maniac; 10-16-2018 at 12:33 PM. |
