he probably would still talk in the huddle and hurt dak fragile feelings, so I guess it's a no go.

He would sign for the vet minimum. It might make for good reality tv. But it would not improve the team.

Dez would probably be an improvement over Witten that’s how bad Witten was. But we can do better than Dez by digging through the ashes of a dumpster fire.

Dez has significant upside at a veteran minimum salary. And we need a physical receiver in the red zone. We were missing that this year.

I think the 49ers showed us tonite how to win with Dak.

Throw only 6 passes every half and instead hand the ball off.

I watched just a drive or two, but I saw the misdirection, multi runthreat game I was hoping we'd use more of this year.

Exactly.
Everyone seems to think Dez has been sitting on his couch eating chips and salsa since he's been out of the league .
He has been working out and looks to be in really good shape. Of course he isn't prime Dez but I would be really excited to see what he could do. I feel like upgrading anywhere the team can should be considered. Plus Dez doesn't quit and I think would be a voice in the locker room. Low risk/ high reward. His salary would be low so if he didn't work out it wouldn't hurt the team but if he did workout it would give another playmaker to help the offense. Who knows, might even see if he can still return punts.

Not even the slightest possibility of it happening and it wasn’t a Garrett decision he lobbied to keep him. This was the Joneses decision both Stephen and Jerry.
It was Stephen and McClay first. Garrett and Jerry had to be convinced right up til the end

It won’t happen but I’ve wondered about it. It’s probably a smart play for him to be a tight end at this point in his career.

Dez Bryant isn't the kind of blocker the Cowboys look for in a TE nor does he have the speed.

If he is cheap enough I will let him try to earn a spot in TC. Call JJ and ask for a try out. Don’t just tweet.
