Not sure Dez gets any more offers but I am sure he has a right to feel let down by the Ravens who asked him not to look around and wait on a spot.
It came late and he was never a large portion of what they did.

Baltimore went from a model franchise with a culture people wanted to copy to some real weird stuff the past 24 months.
And I am not including this as weird.

The fact he got some action and stayed healthy is probably a positive.
The negative is WR is the easiest position in football to fill.

The Ravens weren't expected to bring back Dez Bryant anyway, but the receiver made clear in a series of tweets Tuesday night, that he has no interest in returning.
Lots of players on the verge of being dumped doing the preemptive "I broke up with you first!"
Dez was 6-11 for 47 yards over 6 games, 4.3ypt. That looks pretty done.

This loser just has to try and keep himself relevant. Move on Dez, you’re a has been, go find another hobby and get on with your life. Go make paper mache animals or something.

There isn't a franchise out there that wanted/wants Dez. The man turned down the Ravens a few years ago because he wasn't going to be a starter.

The Ravens again showed their generosity by offering the begging Dez a job & quit after one season. Yeah, he's crying poor. :rolleyes:

..hate to say it, his days might be over. Unless you take 2nd, 3rd string back street and that might be much.
His days have been over when he basically retired,, he just didnt like that bank account total dropping, so he grabbed that last check with the Ravens is all.
Good deal for Dez,, last stack.

You call that bashing?
I call it unecessary if you are looking for more work. Baltimore has been a winning organization with a hard tough minded reputation. I think it does you a disservice to say it was not a good fit for you.

He realizes LJ cant throw it well consistently lol Misses Romo
Dez would tell you str8 up that he was never a route running WR, he was a lot like Irvin, and relied on his physical ability to out muscle at the point of action,, when the ball was within grasp.
Irvin made the art of just putting himself in front of DBs on a routine basis, Irvin wrote and published that art.
Dez never lived up to Irvin status, and Irvins tenure, but Dez had all the ability to do so.

Same problem with Ravens, ...same problem with Cowboys upon his release. .No separation skills - issues getting open.

Good luck on his next journey for a roster spot.

The Ravens don't want him so it's not like he is snubbing them. He is not a highly desired player so he better take whatever offer he can get. It took two years for him to get the job with the Ravens.

I just want him to get together with a good investment firm, partner with them so that he can make a few bucks while they both make each other a few bucks and then get into real estate on the heavy.

He'll be comfy from there and then he can pursue any number of things he would have interest in.
