Antonio Bryant?

[FiniteMan!]

I see that Bryant followed up a decent year in SF with some trouble with the law (Per Wikipedia --- "Following a victory over the Seattle Seahawks on November 19, 2006, Bryant was arrested after his Lamborghini was seen speeding faster than 100 mph on Highway 101. He was charged with suspicion of misdemeanor charges of reckless driving, driving under the influence, and resisting arrest. As a result, Bryant was suspended for four games by the NFL. He sat out the final two games of the 2006 season, and was scheduled to sit out the first two games of the 2007 season.") and was cut.

While we are not hurting at WR, I wouldn't mind a return of AB if he is available. As I recall he was run out of town by Parcells --- would Jerry be interestedin a reunion? I recognize that we have some promising backups, but AB had a knack for making the big plays when we needed them. IMO he was just not 1st receiver caliber. Next to TO, that really works. TO is a huge threat who doesn't deliver when needed. TO would draw a double team, putting AB in single coverage against a team's #2 allowing AB to deliver a lot more. Plus, with TO and AB starting, Terry Glenn would be free to abuse 3rd CBs.

Oh God, no.

wow no

 

[Juke99]

I loved his potential...

But, uh, no thanks

Once again I agree with Juke ----Am I slipping or could it be Juke

 

[Roughneck]

Tell you how much I don't want the douchebag:

I'd rather bring back Vinny to be 3rd string QB.

And yes, I am dead serious.

 

[CrazyCowboy]

This guy is a talent and he is wasting it!

This could be a problem...

For both of us...

 

[Doomsday]

If you are into the two steps forward one back theory, dont think so.

We can always fall back to the "great minds think alike"

By Parcells running him out of town...

...you mean he ran himself out of town.

amirite?

"douchebag"? I probably am missing a piece of the picture here as fan response is uniformly exceedingly negative to this idea. I thought here is a guy who fills what we could really use on the feild and would probably take less than 1 Mil to sign.

Did AB do anything in Dallas other than not be a Parcells guy? I know he is immature as evidenced by his drunk driving incident, but I am unaware of anything else that he has done in his pro career that would lead someone to call him a ******.

What did I miss while I was ignoring Parcells?

Waitasec. I've already replied to this thread, haven't I? Nevermind.

Are you...serious?

He threw his jersey into Parcells face and possibly had to be restrained. He wined and cried about not being a starter.

He left and went to Cleveland, where he whined to the QBs, coaches, etc., enough to make them cut him.

He was slightly quieter in SF, but even there, he obviously isn't a quality guy.

No. Thanks.

I don't know. I really didn't pay a lot of attention to the team while we were being coached by the Giant's coach. Please let me know what AB did that has this much bitterness in the air.

I'ld rather sign Jerry Rice out of retirement.

LOL. That's funny. I didn't know that he did that, but I can totally belive he did that. Based on that I can understand why Cowboy fans would not want him back.

It does make me laugh that he wanted to take out Parcells though.

Michael Irvin was a very good mix of good talent, good work ethic, and out of control egomaniac. I think everyone who likes AB a little sees the same attributes, but something is off about the mix.

 

[lspain1]

Talent without discipline. Will Bryant ever achieve anything significant in football? Doubtful.

 

[BouncingCheese]

This dude needs to be slapped around a few times, he just doesn't get it. If he concentrated more he could be a legit threat weekly. I wouldn't touch this dude with a two foot pole. Thank god for goodell cracking down on stupid players acting like they are above the law. Let this guy sweat it for a while... Though part of me knows that wont happen because Cincinnati is probably seriously looking at him. This guy is an idiot.
