RELEASED Cowboys release WR Martavis Bryant

[Star Guard_31]

The gimmick didn't generate as much enduring buzz as they hoped, but wait, there's more!

For our next parlor trick, we'll sign the son of a former Cowboy...

There were fans that were actually excited about him.

I don't remember anyone being excited about it. I remember some people saying it was dumb (as they do for literally any move the Cowboys make) and others saying it was "no risk, possible reward."

There were several fans talking him up and there were many like myself who thought he was
a jag. There were multiple threads with some looking forward to seeing him play. This is just a couple of the threads and one of them is 13 pages.

I am just speculating.

" and so he walked out of our lives"............

 

[shabazz]

90 percent of the Cowboys' fan base forgot he was even on the team.

.......most of us have forgotten our last championship game.

Our big signing towards the end of the year, aka, the difference maker who never saw a playbook. I wonder how many other reclamation projects Jr and Sr have up their sleeves...

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Lol i remember people thinking this guy had something left

I think people hoped but no way they thought that lol.

Big signing?

Big signing?

Dez Pt 2 at the time, right? Many in here went all goofy over him. Many like me never took the bait

 

[JW82]

Would have liked to see him play. Just a wasted roster/PS spot with this staff.

I don’t recall people going “goofy”…most knew what it was. A kick the tires situation. Shocked it lasted this long. He’s nothing like Dez.

some did, and correct, he is/was nothing like Dez. Was our typical throw something at the wall and see if it sticks signing

lets hope they are adding Zay Jones or this release doesnt make sense.

If that's how far down my hope has gone, to hell with it all. They aren't moving the needle regardless. Nothing against Zay Jones as he's had flashes but it's just another meh signing. How about a RB?

Went through about 4 pages including the last and the only one I saw talking him up was DEZ lol. Im sure there was an oddball but most responded with sarcasm or apathy.

Man, how far have we sunk that people are excited about Zay Jones.

There were other posts with some talking him up. The links I found showed fans who were looking forward to seeing him play. A thread doesn’t last 13 pages if fans don’t have interest in a player. Could be sarcasm but this fan seemed excited.

At 6-foot-4 and 214 pounds with game-breaking speed, Bryant brings a unique physical profile to the Cowboys' WR room

Hope is lost.

Like I said, I'm sure there were a few oddball fans, but no. The large majority knew this was a nothing burger. I'm not one to defend the football intelligence of this board either. It's all good, I'm sure you found posts I didn't. Pretty sure I never commented on any of his threads because I was underwhelmed.
